Mission Statement

The Harding University History House, in conjunction with the Ann Cowan Dixon Archives & Special Collections at Harding, collects, preserves and interprets cultural and related materials associated with the history and community of Harding University, including the women and men whose vision, passion and commitment contribute to Harding’s legacy. The History House offers unique opportunities for innovative teaching, student research and community enrichment.

 

Does your family have memorabilia related to Harding's heritage? We would be honored to accept your donations and preserve your family's historical items. Contact us at 501-279-4354 or historyhouse@harding.edu.

The History House is staffed by volunteers, both alumni and friends who are dedicated to the preservation of Harding's rich heritage. If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions about how you may help, please contact us today at 501-279-4354 or fill out the form below.
