Discover one of the Ozarks’
most breathtaking hidden gems on this rugged
journey into the Sweden Creek Falls Natural Area. Tucked deep within the Boston Mountains and protected by the Arkansas Natural
Heritage Commission, this landscape features
sweeping glades, towering bluffs, deep gulches, hardwood forests, and one of Arkansas’s
most impressive waterfalls. An ANHC representative will join us to share expert insights into
the ecology, geology, and natural history of this
remarkable area.
This 3.5-mile trek explores two trails, giving hikers vantage points both above and below the
81-foot Sweden Creek Falls. The route includes
steep, uneven terrain, creek crossings, and a
challenging descent beneath the falls. This hike
is recommended only for experienced, physically active hikers with good balance, sturdy
footwear, and a hiking pole.

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.

With the passage of ACT
573 (2025), every public classroom in Arkansas—from elementary schools to universities—
must now display printed copies of the Ten
Commandments. This engaging course invites
participants to explore the origins and meanings of these commandments as presented in
Exodus 20, while comparing them to the alternate accounts in Deuteronomy 5 and Exodus 34. Together, we’ll trace the long-standing debates
over how exactly the Ten Commandments are
identified and numbered across Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant traditions, examining how
interpretation shapes theology and practice.
Through closer reading, discussion, and interactive analysis, participants will investigate not
only the ancient context of these texts but also
their modern implications.
Finally, the course turns to the legal and constitutional dimensions of ACT 573, analyzing the
act’s religious symbolism and its potential conflict with the Establishment Clause of the First
Amendment. Led by Dr. Spencer L. Allen, Teaching Assistant Professor in the Department of
History at the University of Arkansas’s Fulbright
College, this course offers an intellectually rich
and thought-provoking exploration of scripture, law, and the boundaries between church
and state. (Box lunch provided in class fee.

"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."
