UARK Museum Launches FundRazor Campaign
What do an inflatable dinosaur, Roman coin, meteorite, and the first computer in the state all have in common? You can find them all at the University of Arkansas' very own museum!
The Museum has over 7.5 million artifacts representing the fields of archeology, geology, history, and zoology. Since the 1870s, the Museum has preserved and shared history through active research, education, and outreach.
Countless visitors, educators, and researchers have benefitted from this Museum and its collections for the last 150 years. Help us jumpstart the next 150 by supporting the #MoreUARKMuseum FundRazor campaign!
To deepen our impact in the community, we must increase access to the University Museum's collections and enhance existing initiatives. The Museum has immeasurable potential, but the University Museum cannot meet its goals without you.
We are seeking to raise $5,000 by Aug. 25 for improved displays, educational resources, and virtual tours. Our goal is to make it easier for everyone to interact with the Museum's collections and benefit from what it has to offer. Together, we hope to see #MoreUARKMuseum!
