It’s been said that the more you know, the less you need. To this end, we invite you to join us around the fire for our third Vinterläger.
Vinterläger, or “winter camp,” is a three-day, two-night immersive wilderness experience: a setting to learn new skills, and sharpen old ones.
As a small group, we’ll eat food professionally prepared over the fire, and ground ourselves in the winter landscape of the Ozark Mountains. We’ll take a deep dive into the fundamentals of wilderness self-sufficiency.
Get your hands dirty honing knife, saw, and axe techniques, building strong shelters, kindling fire from friction, and preparing food on an open fire. We’ll trade ideas, laugh a lot, and work with the land around us in a reciprocal manner. Spots are limited, so don’t delay to sign up.
Please note, this event is for persons 18 years of age and up.
What's included:
3 days of wilderness skills training with primitive skills instructors
Unique, private walk-in camping area
3 high quality, professionally cooked meals from Chef Matt Cooper (1 breakfast, 2 dinners)
Limited Edition event swag
$455.00 USD

During the creative explosion that was country music in the 1990s, Suzy Bogguss sold four million records with sparkling folk radio hits like “Outbound Plane,” “Someday Soon,” “Drive South” and “Hey Cinderella.”
But you can’t peg Bogguss that easily… she made a duet album with the legendary Chet Atkins and in 2003, recorded with Merle Haggard and collaborated on a swing album with Ray Benson of Asleep At The Wheel. So yes, you can call her a country singer if you want, but really that’s just the beginning.
PRIMARY TRUST
BY EBONI BOOTH | DIRECTED BY VICKIE WASHINGTON
Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize, Primary Trust follows mild-mannered Kenneth, a 36-year-old, set-in-his-ways bookstore worker, who spends most evenings sipping Mai Tais with his best friend at the local tiki bar. When he’s suddenly laid off, his world turns upside down—in more ways than one. Booth's surprising, touching comedy explores new beginnings, old friends, and the power of seeing the world through fresh eyes.
“It will restore your faith in theatre’s elemental storytelling powers.” -The Observer
“Perfect-anything rarely exists, but Primary Trust is pretty darn near to a perfect play.” - The Daily Beast
“It’s actually a wake up call, and not just for the man who’s been living in a daze.” - NYT Critics Pick

Take a Trip Back in Time—Deep Time!
Journey with us to the Fayetteville area, long before humans ever set foot here. Join the Ozark Natural Science Center staff and Chris Moyer, retired geologist and NWACC Geology professor, for an exploration of the geologic and natural history of Kessler Mountain!
First, we’ll dive into the foundational concepts of geology, unraveling the mysteries of Earth’s past. Then, we’ll dig deeper into the fascinating geologic history of the Fayetteville area and discover how geology shapes the land around us.
After our classroom discussions and presentations, we’ll lace up our hiking boots and hit the trails! Explore the Rock City and Fayetteville Traverse trails at Kessler Mountain, where stunning outcrops and breathtaking vistas will bring the earlier discussions to life. Witness firsthand how geology sculpts the landscape while learning about the local plants and animals that call this area home.
This gem of a location is not open to the general public, so don’t miss this unique opportunity to hike through the Rock City geologic formations on a guided adventure!

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.
