Big tents = zero weather worries.
Sacred Harp singing is a community musical event emphasizing participation, not performance.
Singers sit facing inward in a hollow square. Each individual is invited to take a turn “leading,” i.e. standing in the center, selecting a song, and beating time with the hand.
The singing is not accompanied by harps or any other instrument (your voice is the sacred harp). The group sings from "The Sacred Harp", a songbook first published in 1844 by B.F. White and E. J. King. The text is sacred in nature, but this is a social event, foremost. We say "all are welcome" and we really mean it.
He is one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Now, Michael Jackson’s unique and unparalleled artistry comes to Northwest Arkansas as MJ, the multi–Tony Award®-winning new musical centered around the making of the 1992 Dangerous World Tour, begins a tour of its own.
Created by Tony Award-winning director/choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ goes beyond the singular moves and signature sound of the star, offering a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Michael Jackson into legendary status. MJ is startin’ somethin’ as it makes its Northwest Arkansas premiere at Walton Arts Center in May 2025.
Recommended for ages 8 and up.
Join author Rebecca Nagle as she discusses her debut book in conversation with Alaynna Littlefeather.
In "By the Fire We Carry", Rebecca Nagle recounts the generations-long fight for tribal land and sovereignty in eastern Oklahoma. By chronicling both the contemporary legal battle and historic acts of Indigenous resistance, "By the Fire We Carry" stands as a landmark work of American history. The story it tells exposes both the wrongs that our nation has committed and the Native-led battle for justice that has shaped our country. In the 1830s, Muscogee people were rounded up by the US military at gunpoint and forced into exile halfway across the continent. At the time, they were promised this new land would be theirs for as long as the grass grew and the waters ran, but that promise was not kept. Over a century later, a Muscogee citizen was sentenced to death for murdering another Muscogee citizen on tribal land. His defense attorneys argued the murder occurred on the reservation of his tribe, and therefore Oklahoma didn’t have the jurisdiction to execute him. In the summer of 2020, the Supreme Court settled the dispute. Its ruling that would ultimately underpin multiple reservations covering almost half the land in Oklahoma, including Nagle’s own Cherokee Nation.
Rebecca Nagle is an award winning journalist and citizen of Cherokee Nation. She is the author of "By The Fire We Carry: The Generation-Long Fight for Justice on Native Land" and the writer and host of the podcast This Land. Her writing on Native representation, federal Indian law, and tribal sovereignty has been featured in the Atlantic, the Washington Post, The Guardian, USA Today, Indian Country Today, and more. Rebecca Nagle is the recipient of the Lukas Book Prize, the American Mosaic Journalism Prize, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, a Peabody Nominee, and the Women’s Media Center’s Exceptional Journalism Award. Nagle lives in Tahlequah, OK. Indigenous communities deserve the same standard of journalism as the rest of the country, but rarely receive it from non-Native media outlets. Nagle‘s journalism seeks to correct this. From the census, to COVID, to the Supreme Court, Nagle focuses on deeply and timely reporting that sheds light on issues of national importance.

A monthly dance event with a live DJ. Hosted by Skye Van Camp and Emmy Kinnally
Ecstatic dance is a freeform movement journey where you can explore and express yourself through dance. The music guides you through different rhythms and energies, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the experience.
The intention of ecstatic dance is to create a space of presence, fostering curiosity about the patterns held in our bodies and minds that keep us separate and hold us back from our expression. In this space, one can accept and release feelings of shame and judgment, entering into a state of loving acceptance of one’s body and wholeness.
Join us for some music and dancing on this long weekend! Open to the public!
