OPENING JULY 1, 2023
The U.S. Marshals Museum has announced that
the Museum will open its doors to the public beginning July 1, 2023. The opening
culminates more than 16 years of fundraising, design, construction and installation.
In 2007, after a rigorous selection process, the United States Marshals Service (USMS)
chose Fort Smith, Arkansas, as the permanent home for its national museum. Since
then, a diverse group of volunteers, staff, community leaders, and elected
representatives from throughout Arkansas and across the nation have worked alongside
the USMS to build a world-class facility on the banks of the Arkansas River.
Additional information about ticketing, memberships, and programming will be announced soon.

After years of preparation, the 53,000 square foot Mary Carleton and Robert A. Young III Building and Samuel M. Sicard Hall of Honor were dedicated on September 24, 2019 along the banks of the Arkansas River in Fort Smith. Featuring an iconic design, the Museum will tell the stories of justice, integrity, and service of the Marshals who have bravely served our nation.
