Mission:

The Rogers Historical Museum serves Rogers and all of Northwest Arkansas, a rapidly growing metropolitan area that shares a rich natural and cultural heritage, a vibrant entrepreneurial spirit, and an increasingly diverse population. 

Our mission is to enrich lives through education, experience, and exploration of our heritage.

We fulfill that mission through:

 - Collecting and preserving artifacts, archival materials, and research materials which document the history and cultural heritage of Rogers and Benton County

 - Offering exhibitions, programs, publications, and web-based resources which foster an appreciation of our region’s heritage and enable area residents to create a better future for themselves, their families, and their communities

 - Offering family-friendly exhibitions and programs which allow people of all ages to engage the past, imagine the future, and find joy in learning

 - Offering loan exhibitions and related programs which broaden the cultural horizons of area residents and help place our region’s natural and cultural heritage in a broader context

Values:

We believe:

 - That understanding the past can help our community make better decisions about the future

 - That as public servants we have an obligation to preserve, protect, and advance an understanding of and appreciation for our region’s natural and cultural heritage

We believe in:

 - Partnership and collaboration and will both seek out and respond positively to opportunities for cooperative action with other museums, libraries, schools, and cultural institutions

 - Honesty through careful research and objectivity in presentation

 - Inclusion through insuring that programs are accessible and invite participation by the widest possible audience

 - Investing in our employees and volunteers through training that will allow them to meet the highest standards of the museum profession

Vision:

Our vision is for the Rogers Historical Museum to be:

 - The premier history museum in Northwest Arkansas, with collection facilities, exhibitions, and programs on a par with those of history museums in even larger metropolitan areas

 - An accessible, inclusive, family-friendly educational institution that promotes life-long learning for people of all ages and walks of life

 - A creative, entrepreneurial institution responsive to the changing needs of the community and the varied interests of patrons

 - A center for community engagement, a partner in community development, and a vital partner in creating a vibrant, successful historic downtown
