This fall, roam a world outside time as acclaimed studio Klip Collective uses light, sound, and state-of-the-art projection mapping to transform acres of Ozark nature into a one-of-a-kind journey across time and space.

Designed exclusively for the museum’s North Forest, this outdoor, site-responsive experience features six immersive installations for you and your crew to explore. Witness the natural rhythms of the Earth brought to life, see yourself fractured across the surface of a broken time machine, marvel together at the movements of the forest in a landscape of light, and more.

Backed by a custom soundtrack and open during the Ozarks’ most beautiful season, Time Loop truly offers an outdoor experience unlike any in Northwest Arkansas.

The Machine Behind the Art: Inside JR’s Printing Press is one of JR’s most extensive immersive and experiential works to date.

Most of us live in Fayetteville but know little about the city’s early history— its founding, its growth, and the people who helped shape it. In this program, retired history professor and former academic dean Georgena Duncan returns to her roots in historical research with a focus on early Fayetteville. Drawing from her current research, she will guide participants through the city’s development from 1828 to 1865.

The program will introduce the fascinating and often complex individuals who played key roles in Fayetteville’s early years—settlers, slave owners, farmers, merchants, and politicians—many of whom helped establish the Fayetteville Square as a center of community life. Participants will also learn how the city grew steadily through the antebellum period, only to be devastated by the Civil War.

Settle in and discover the early story of Fayetteville from someone passionate about both the subject and the city itself.
