EUREKA SPRINGS HISTORICAL MUSEUM: BAKER HOSPITAL EXHIBIT

The Eureka Springs Historical Museum is hosting a very special temporary exhibit showcasing the infamous Baker Hospital! This short-lived venture only operated inside the Crescent Hotel from 1937 to 1940, but it left quite the impression with its unconventional medical treatments.

The exhibit will feature artifacts, images, and rare documents highlighting the life and tumultuous career of Norman Baker and his phoney cancer hospital here in Eureka Springs.

In addition to the historical artifacts that will be on display for the Baker Hospital exhibit, we are also thrilled to welcome local author and illustrator Sean Fitzgibbon to the exhibit of his stunning new graphic novel What Follows is True: Crescent Hotel.  Some of his framed original art from the book will be on display as part of the exhibit. The Baker Hospital exhibit will be on display through the winter!
