UNC Basketball Museum
The University of North Carolina Basketball Museum, which chronicles the history of UNC basketball through videos, photos and artifacts, is now open on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (except on UNC holidays). The museum has attracted nearly 25,000 visitors since it opened this past January. Basketball fans can see nearly 500 authentic artifacts, hundreds of photographs, and videos of various players, coaches, championships and other historic moments. The museum, located on the first floor of Ernie Williamson Athletics Center adjacent to the Dean Smith Center, is open each Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Officials plan to post on the Web site www.TarHeelBlue.com other museum hours for special dates such as home football Saturdays and home basketball games.
