Campus Night at the Museum

From meteorites and dinosaurs to ancient Roman coins and first computers, the University of Arkansas Museum houses a wide array of materials across time and space.

UARK students, faculty, staff, and alumni! Start the semester off right by joining us from 6-10:30 p.m. Saturday, August 19, for a free and fun evening with the Museum's popular collections open house, food, fun activities such as a scavenger hunt and a sketch session featuring museum artifacts, and an outdoor showing of Jurassic World showing at 8:30 p.m.! It’s also an opportunity to learn about the Museum’s resources for learning and research experiences on campus.

A number of awesome campus partners will be at the event, including the Arkansas Archeological Survey and Society, UARK Isely Baerg Entomology Club, University Libraries’ Special Collections, School of Art faculty, and more!

Parking is free and a free shuttle from main campus to the Museum will be provided at Hotz Hall Bus Loop (1200 Cleveland St, Fayetteville, AR 72701). The shuttle runs from 6:00PM to 10:30PM this evening. The final shuttle leaves the Museum at 10:30PM. During the event, the shuttle will transport to and from as needed. If they haven’t had any riders within a 10-minute wait period at one stop then they’ll go back to the other pickup location and wait about 10 minutes or so.

Registration is appreciated, but not required. A limited number of blankets will be provided for the outdoor movie, so we suggest bringing your own just in case.
