Eureka Springs Community Center

Jacqueline Froelich

Eureka Springs, population 2,000, has plenty of attractions and accommodations for tourists, but has never had a community center for locals. Two project proposals are in play to construct a public town center, on a vacant public school campus located in Eureka's historic district. (UPDATE: The National Endowment for the Arts has declined a planning grant to keep the historic school building intact, making way for potential commercial development.)

Jacqueline Froelich is an investigative reporter and news producer for Ozarks at Large.
