The ongoing celebration of the Buffalo National River will journey to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art for a full program on Saturday, Aug. 6.
From 11 a.m. to noon, a conversation with experts will explore the ways in which artists have understood, depicted and advocated for the river. Speakers will include Steve Sitton, historic site supervisor of the T.H. Benton Home State Historic Site and Angie Albright, director of the Shiloh Museum of Ozark History.
Immediately following the panel, the Crystal Bridges team has arranged a screening of “First River: How Arkansas Saved a National Treasure.” The film, created by the Ozark Society, is a history of the river and its preservation from the 1960s to today with particular emphasis upon the conservation efforts of the Ozark Society.
The panel and screening will be free and open to the public, but you must reserve your free spot online (link below) or call Crystal Bridges Guest Services at 479-657-2335.
