A-State Museum is unique in that it serves local communities as the only nature/culture museum in Jonesboro with significant STEM and STEAM programming! This year, activities will culminate in the celebration of our 90th anniversary as a first-rate community-empowering museum. As such, the American Alliance of Museums has accredited our operations for the past 50 years. Your support ensures a great investment in ongoing high-impact museum edutainment offering thought-provoking exhibitions that tell the stories of all Northeast Arkansans. On behalf of A-State Museum we invite you to make a gift to us on or before April 11, 2023, by going to AStateAlumni.org/Give2AState. Your gift, no matter the size will make a difference for all our visitors. Let’s make a difference together! Thank you!

 

 


Mask Policy

(updated 2/17/2022)

While we are not requiring masks in the Main Gallery, due to room size, masks are highly recommended for the Tinkering Studio, the Blue Block Play Room, Drawing Room, and Reading Castle.

Thank you. Museum Management
