Due to the ongoing threat surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19), the University Museum and Cultural Center (UMCC) is currently open to the public in a limited capacity. As a result, visitors to the museum must follow current University of Arkansas guidelines, which require wearing face masks or face coverings. Furthermore, we request that visitors not in the same group practice safe social distancing when in the museum and that groups limit themselves to 5 people at a time. Until further notice, the museum will not be taking tour requests. We suggest utilizing our virtual tour, which can be found below.
Welcome and thank you for visiting the University Museum and Cultural Center (UMCC) online. Free and open to the public, the museum is located in Childress Hall. UMCC is home to the Keepers of the Spirit: The L.A. Davis Historical Collection, which documents the more than 140-year history of the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB). Our website highlights our mission, exhibitions, and research opportunities. Please feel free to read more about our museum on this site or come in for a visit. Self-guided tours are available anytime the museum is open. Reservations are required for groups larger than 10 people.
Guided tours for groups are available at the museum on request. A group must have 10 or more participants. Groups larger than 20 people will be asked to split into smaller groups before entering the museum galleries.
