THE MAJORITY OF THE BUDGET IS FOR LABOR AND OCCUPANCY EXPENSES SUCH AS UTILITIES, INSURANCE, AND BUILDING REPAIRS. HOURS OF OPERATION ARE WEDNESDAY THRU FRIDAY 10 A.M. TO 4 P.M. AND SATURDAY 10 S.M. TO 2 P.M. THE MUSEUM IS ALSO OPEN PERIODICALLY FOR MISSISSIPPI RIVER CRUISE SHIPS THAT COME TO PHILLIPS COUNTY. BOARD AND MUSEUM MEMBERS VOLUNTEER THEIR TIME TO GIVE THESE TOURS.
THE HELENA MUSEUM ACQUIRED ADDITIONAL SPACE WHEN THE PHILLIPS COUNTY LIBRARY MOVED TO ANOTHER LOCATION. RENOVATION IN THE WAY OF REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE HAS ADDED TO OUR COST OF OCCUPANCY OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS AS WE ATTEMPT TO INCORPORATE THAT SPACE TO APPROPRIATELY PRESERVE HISTORICALLY RELEVANT ARTIFACTS AND DISPLAYS. A GRANT FOR $45,300.44 FROM THE ARKANSAS HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM WAS USED TO MAKE STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENTS TO THE MUSEUM BUILDING.
THE MUSEUM RECEIVED AN ADDITIONAL GRANT OF $2,400 FROM THE ARKANSAS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION TO PLACE BLINDS IN THE WINDOWS IN ORDER TO PROTECT ARTIFACTS FROM UV RAYS AND TO HELP KEEP THE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY LEVELS APPROPRIATELY CONTROLLED.
