Visit the Arlington Historical Museum’s voting rights exhibit “From Barriers to Ballots” at our museum. The exhibit features artifacts and documents about Arlington’s voting history including ballot boxes used when the Hume School was a polling place and a poll tax receipt–when you had to pay to be able to vote. The Arlington Historical Museum is open every Sunday from 1–4 PM (Saturdays we’re open from 10-4 during the summer).
Come for a fascinating look into the people, places, and moments that shaped our community. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious, there’s something here for you—because history is for everyone. Come explore, connect, and be inspired! Visit us this weekend—admission is free! Rediscover the past!
