Central High Museum and Visitor Center

The Central High Museum and Visitor Center celebrates a landmark Arkansas history through the introduction of the integration of public schools. The Central High Museum and Visitor's Center, located across from the actual Central High School, which is still in operation today, allows visitors to explore the events that surrounded the 1957 Integration Crisis. Visitors of the museum are able to see the world through the eyes of the "Little Rock Nine" in the exhibit "All the World is Watching Us; Little Rock and the 1957 Integration Crisis." The brave nine students partook in the nation's first school integration.

Admission to the museum and visitor center is free but donations are always welcome and allow for the facility to be kept up and run properly. The gift shop at Central High offers souvenirs and memorabilia associated with the time. History is displayed at the gift shop and honors the nine students who paved the way for integration in public schools. Visitors from all over the country frequent the facility and gaze upon the photos of yesteryear. Many former alumni or graduates of the school are often seen touring the museum. The school is very large and should be toured at the same time as the museum.
