Take a stroll on the boardwalk through Old Town Arkansas. This exhibit consists of 13 turn-of-the-century shops and offices which were typical of the local region between 1880 and 1920.
We offer a free audio iPod tour of Old Town at the Museum where you enter the exhibit through the façade of the Old Craighead County Courthouse of Jonesboro, Arkansas. Travel with us now through the bell tower that houses the original bell that rang in the original 1886 courthouse.
