Arizona State Capitol Museum Guild
From the Museum
We are Arizona's museum, in the original 1901 Capitol building where statehood began. Readers of the new Museum Guild newsletter can see that this is an exciting time to be here.
Seven new exhibits, large and small, have opened over the past year. Visitation is on the rise, with more students enrolled for tours this season that a year ago at this time.
Educators have expanded their interpretation with the opening of a new exhibit, "Arizona's Historic Figures," that occupies the entire fourth floor of the historic capitol.
The first floor is buzzing! The popular Lunch Bunch series is celebrating its 15th season by breaking attendance records! The variety of topics and speakers, including twice yearly Legislative overviews and wrap ups from the Capitol press corps, often attract standing room crowds. Quality merchandise and personal service has helped the award-winning Museum Store grow each year.
The Museum excels in presenting exceptional exhibits, lectures and tours because of the support of Guild members and volunteers. Thank you for this partnership and your commitment to the Museum's program.
