Welcome to the Sharlot Hall Museum, where you are invited to explore the colorful panorama of Central Arizona's History. The Museum's nine buildings and four special gardens (including our famous Territorial Women's Rose Garden) reveal a sequence spanning the years from before the founding of Prescott in 1864 to the present.

"Color and Texture: The Vibrant Art of Jack Dudley" is an on-line only exhibit of paintings by a master of the rare "broken color" technique of oil painting.

We are proudest of our founder's legacy.  Visit our exhibit of Sharlot Mabridth Hall (founder of the Museum) .

1898: Arizona Goes to War, an exciting story of Arizona's part in the Spanish-American War, is on-line only. Interpreted from a local perspective, it gives insight into the historic circumstances that propelled Arizonans to the forefront of action in this conflict and explores the question: how did territorial Arizona's frontier heritage affect the war?
