(Special to the Democrat-Gazette)

“Arkansas Supreme Court,” a new permanent exhibit covering the more than 70-year tenancy of the state Supreme Court at the Old State House, opens Friday at what is now the Old State House Museum, 300 W. Markham St., Little Rock.

The court moved to the new state Capitol in 1912. The exhibit consists of six interpretative panels explaining the court’s history, including its involvement in the so-called Brooks-Baxter War, plus reproductions of historic rulings and a video that provides context and background to the court’s activities.

At 6 p.m. today, in lieu of an opening reception, the museum is releasing a video on its website, oldstatehouse.com, and on social media, of Barbara Webb, recently elected to the Supreme Court, touring the exhibit with museum director Bill Gatewood and journalist and author Ernie Dumas, the guest curator.

Museum hours are 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday. Admission is free. Call (501) 324-9685.
