Experience the quiet beauty of late fall on this guided adventure to Kings
River Falls Natural Area. This 2-mile hike offers a
peaceful escape into the Ozarks, featuring overhanging bluffs, forested trails, and the striking
Kings River Falls, spanning the width of the river, and flowing strongest in the cooler, wetter
months. Bare trees reveal dramatic rock formations, and crisp air adds a refreshing energy to
this easy-to-moderate hike. It’s the perfect season to enjoy the stillness of nature while connecting with others who share your love for the
outdoors.
Expect a few wet or muddy patches. Waterproof
shoes or an extra pair of socks are recommended. Whether you’re looking to stay active or
simply soak in the seasonal beauty, this outing
offers a rejuvenating way to explore Arkansas’s
wild side.
Transportation and meeting details will be provided in your class reminder. Activity Level 3

Arkansans rely on Beaver Lake for drinking water? Join us for an eye-opening class and guided
tour that explores how this vital reservoir powers
daily life across Northwest Arkansas. You’ll learn
how water is sourced, treated, and distributed
through the Beaver Water District—and why
conservation is critical to the region’s future.
This experience includes a behind-the-scenes
tour of the water treatment facility, where experts will walk you through each step of the
process. See the systems in action, ask questions,and gain insights you won’t find in a textbook or
on a solo visit.
Whether you’re a curious newcomer or a lifelong
resident, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of where your water comes from—and how
you can help protect it. Explore the hidden infrastructure that keeps Arkansas flowing—and
discover your role in its future. Activity Level: 1

"Teresa Pelliccio underwent a significant mind-shift in 2004 after reading The Power of Now and began a meditation practice. Shortly thereafter, she began experiencing conscious, otherworldly “trips” during her sleep. To understand and process these experiences, she turned to art. Her art forms are born from personal associations and blend spirituality, the metaphysical, intuition, self-empowerment and rebellion with femininity, whimsy and impulse. It is her wish that her work might inspire you to consider what may lie beyond the physical and encourage you to explore it. And, to love and support yourself fully as you do. 
Hilka Irvin is a Minnesota native who made Eureka Springs her home in 2014. A self-taught artist, she works in various mediums—oils, acrylics, and watercolor—each reflective of her mindset. In addition to visual art, she writes poetry and short stories to fulfill her creative soul. Her work is often described as eclectic, as she creates instinctively rather than adhering to expectations. Hilka thrives on stepping outside her comfort zone and expresses herself through art and writing that continues to evolve.
RIGDON IRVIN has always thought of art as a history of humankind. His art is very much influenced by the fact that he is a child of the 70’s. He was introduced to all kinds of music, art and various aspects of the counter culture at an early age, by older siblings, who were coming of age during that time. He loves color and watching it explode on the canvas, incorporating the architectural lines of the mid century, as well as the atomic themes of the space age. Being an abstract artist allows him the freedom to create art from “an anything goes” mindset. "

Join Cocoon Yoga Lab for an energizing, yet mindful yoga flow. This twice-monthly class offers a balanced mix of gentle challenge and restorative movement, perfect for those who want to cultivate strength, flexibility, and inner calm.

Throughout the session, we’ll move through a variety of postures, guided by breath and mindful movement, building both physical endurance and mental focus. This practice is beginner-friendly and open to yogis of all levels. Options will be provided to either soften or intensify your practice, allowing you to meet your body where it’s at.

While the pace will help you work up a light glisten, this isn’t an intense sweat session—making it the perfect way to unwind and connect with your body.

Practiced at room temperature, this class is a welcoming, feel-good way to move your body, quiet the mind, and leave feeling centered.

Tickets are $10 ($5 for members), see upcoming event dates and reserve your spot online, or speak with the Box Office at (479) 657-2335 today.

Please bring a yoga mat to practice on, along with any props to help make you more comfortable, such as a block or small bolster. We also recommend you wear comfortable layers you can easily stretch and move in.‌‌‌
