Carroll Reece Museum East Tennessee State University Johnson City, Tennessee
309 Burgin E. Dossett Hall
The ETSU Carroll Reece Museum - A campus history project initiated in the late 1920s created a repository that ultimately emerged as the B. Carroll Reece Memorial Museum. The museum collection grew as a part of the university's library, and in 1965, the collection was transferred to its present location in the renovated building that had most recently housed the art department. The Art Department's permanent collection of works of art became the core of the Reece Museum's fine arts collection.
Formally dedicated on October 10, 1965, the B. Carroll Reece Memorial Museum was established as a tribute to the memory of Tennessee's First District Congressman B. Carroll Reece, and as a "storehouse of knowledge... for the use of the University's students and the citizens of the state."
The Reece Museum is a component of ETSU's Center for Appalachian Studies and Services and has been accredited by the American Association of Museums since 1972.
