General Info
The Greene County Museum is located in a home that was originally built by Junius Marion Futrell, governor of Arkansas from 1933 to 1937. The home was acquired by a group of volunteers in 2004 and took four years to restore it to its present condition. Upon entering the museum visitors are in the Futrell Room, which highlights the governor's achievements while in office from 1933 through 1937. It also features a magnificent staircase and a white marble fireplace. The museum consists of 14 rooms, each devoted to a theme that describes an aspect of Greene County history. They include the Railroad, Timber and Industry Room, the Native American Nook, the Media Room, the Education Room, the Medical Room, the Sports Room, the Old Kitchen, the Settlers Room, the Pioneer Room, the Greene County Room, the Gift Shop, two Military Rooms, and the Children's Room. Local artist displays are located in the halls and there are murals of early Greene County.
