Springfield Art Museum

We are so excited to announce the release of "A History of the Springfield Art Museum", a comprehensive new publication authored by Curator of Art, Sarah Buhr. As the Museum approaches its 100th anniversary in 2028, this richly detailed volume provides an essential resource tracing the institution’s evolution from its early beginnings in 1926 to its role today as a vibrant cultural anchor for the region.

Interested in purchasing a copy? The book retails for $29.95, and you can call the Museum at 417-837-5700 to place an order.

In addition to purchasing the book directly through the Museum, the public is invited to a special panel discussion and book signing led by Sarah Buhr and featuring Kaitlyn McConnell, Kait Baird, and Nick Nelson, on Saturday, August 29, 2026, at The Library Center’s Hatch Auditorium at 3:30 PM. More details about the event will be announced soon.
