The Machine Behind the Art: Inside JR’s Printing Press is one of JR’s most extensive immersive and experiential works to date. After taking portraits in one of three individual photo booths, visitors enter the interior of an oversized, whirring printing press – turning their image into a tangible work of art while offering a glimpse into the creative process of JR. After the experience, visitors leave with their own, one-of-a-kind print.

Member Perk: Momentary members receive two free prints per visit. Just reserve your timed ticket online or with the Box Office, and your discount will be applied at checkout!

Timed portrait tickets are $20 (Free for members), reserve your timeslot online or with the Box Office at (479) 657-2335.

If you do not plan on taking a portrait during your visit, no purchase is required to attend The Machine Behind the Art: Inside JR’s Printing Press.

This program will cover the
history of Jews in the parts of the four states
that compose the Ozarks. Dr. Mara W. Cohen
Ioannides, emerita faculty at Missouri State University, whose research focus has been on Jewish communities in the Ozarks, will look back to
the purchase of the Louisiana Territory through
the present day and examine how the Jewish
communities were founded and folded, who
they were composed of, and what made them
thrive and fail. It is an interesting journey that’s
worth knowing to better understand Ozark’s
history.

In this class, Judith Tavano,
nationally recognized generations scholar, will
explore the vital, yet often overlooked, roles women played during the American Revolution
across political, domestic, and creative spheres.
Discover how women - American Patriots and
Loyalists, British Women, and Enslaved Women - shaped the American Revolution through
craft, domestic labor, espionage, and political
voice. This class highlights women as activists
and nurturers of wartime resilience, whose
diverse perspectives and actions challenged
power and helped forge a new culture for an
emerging nation.

"Finding Our Way | February 5 - April 26, 2026
The moment of arrival—what we carry when we seek sanctuary, transitions, and the crossing into safety. Sandra Spotts, artist. Jay Lane, artist. Familiar images made from various materials and objects, found and recycled, placed in a format of controlled chaos, is at this point in my journey, the medium of choice for the
“Finding Our Way” exhibit at Gotahold Brewing. I see society as satirical subject matter that exists in a surrealistic landscape of twisted perspective that is filled to the fences with social ironies. And yet, I still have to maintain my sense of humor about what has been and what will be with the activities du jour based on fear, war, greed, and hate. With this sense also comes my interpretations, expressed visually based on my
experiences, feelings, and health, from finding my way as an artist. I hope these pieces give you a sense of curiosity that you continue to carry with you while you are finding your way through all of this we humans call life."

ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Cooper Clark and Jacob Evans are a duo act out of Fayetteville, AR. Together, these two weirdos make up the band we hope you come to know as Lone Social. Their signature sound comes from years of obsessing over John Mayer’s melody driven leads, their southeastern roots, and love for making people dance. Their heart is to bring tunes that are honest to the other weirdos and romantics of the world. As longtime best-friends, multi-dimensional creators, and aspiring improvisation comedians, Evans and Clark’s relationship is nothing short of unique. While Cooper Clark isn’t playing electric guitar, he is producing immersive experiences across NWA and beyond. Jacob Evans, a husband and father of two, is pioneering a new way to do real estate transactions as CEO of a rising tech platform. Together they create music as a way to release the pressure valve of life and engage in their community. The two artists combine their powers to form a fresh pop-rock sound, called Lone Social. Their debut single Slow It Down was released on October 29, 2021. The song documents a road trip Evans took across the country in a half-filled U-Haul, where his newly-proposed-to fiancée met his family for the first time. When the duo sat down to write this song, they knew they wanted to remind themselves of that early feeling in any relationship. Slow It Down, when you have more to say, take the long way home. Thanks for listening.
