Mosaic Templars Cultural Center, African-American museum in Little Rock, United States.
The Mosaic Templars Cultural Center is a four-story museum in Little Rock dedicated to African-American history and entrepreneurship. Its floors hold permanent exhibits, interactive galleries, and research facilities for genealogy.
The organization began in 1883 as an insurance provider for African Americans during segregation. It became one of the first Black-owned insurance companies and played a key role in economic self-determination for the community.
The center shows how African-American communities built strength through mutual support and shared enterprise. Its exhibits tell stories of business founders and leaders who created opportunity despite facing serious barriers.
The museum opens Tuesday through Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM and admission is free. Guided tours can be arranged in advance to enhance your visit.
The third floor houses the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame, a gallery honoring outstanding African-American achievers across fields. Many visitors miss that this collection includes artists and athletes alongside business leaders.
