In the first Saturday of each month, Best Friends Animal Society is bringing fun with furry friends to The Momentary! As part of The Momentary’s new Community Meetups series launching this March, the first “Dog Days with Best Friends” event will give members of the community the chance to spend time with adorable, adoptable dogs from the Best Friends Pet Resource Center in Bentonville.

This special meetup invites everyone—from those currently fostering a dog through Best Friends, to proud adopters, potential adopters, and anyone who simply enjoys spending time with adorable pups. This will be a warm, relaxed gathering where pet lovers can connect, share stories, sip coffee, and enjoy some canine company in a friendly community space. Free coffee will be provided by Third Space from 9 a.m. - 10 a.m.

For everyone’s comfort and safety, all dogs are asked to remain on leashes while mingling.

The Ozark Center for Lifestyle Medicine is hosting its monthly whole food plant-based (WFPB) potluck meal on the second Monday of each month, and we’d love to have you join us tonight!

This community event is a wonderful opportunity to savor beautiful, delicious, healthy food, learn more about plant-based eating, and meet folks who are wanting to take a proactive role in restoring their bodies to optimal health and vitality!

We will hear the stories of some who have experienced the power of a plant-based diet to heal, and you’ll have an opportunity to “ask the doc” of Dr. Morgan, a Lifestyle Medicine physician, any questions you may have about plant-based eating, and lifestyle medicine in general. Dr. Morgan will also give a short presentation on how Lifestyle Medicine can help treat, prevent, and reverse disease.

If you can make it, just bring a dish that is based on whole plants (with minimal to no oil and salt, and no animal products) to share. If you’re not the cooking type, feel free to bring some cut-up fruit or raw veggies. Anything real and minimally processed is welcome! We just want you to come!

Please feel free to invite anyone who may be interested in coming with you! (Your dish will cover for them). Also, if you have children, say 9 and up, who are interested in healthy living, feel free to bring them along as well!
