🎨🌿 Color the Ozarks the old-fashioned way at Davidsonville Historic State Park
Step back in time on Saturday, March 21 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a hands-on Natural Dyes Workshop that’s bursting with history and color. Join a park interpreter to discover how early Arkansans used native plants and natural resources to transform simple yarns and fabrics into vibrant works of art.n The best part? You’ll head home with your very own skein of hand-dyed yarn — crafted by you, colored by nature.
Space is limited, registration is required, and the fee is just $15.

Join the Randolph County Heritage Museum on Saturday, March 7 from 4:00–6:00 PM for a special reception and ribbon cutting celebrating the grand opening of the new Ruth Ann Cox Agricultural and Rural Life Galleries!
The ribbon cutting will take place at approximately 4:30 PM, with refreshments served throughout the evening.
Made possible through the generous support of Don Cox and the Cox family, this exciting expansion more than doubles the museum’s exhibit space and allows for an even deeper look into the agricultural roots, traditions, and hardworking people who helped shape Pocahontas and Randolph County.
Located on the historic courthouse square at 106 East Everett Street in Pocahontas, the Randolph County Heritage Museum has been preserving our local history since 2006 — and this new gallery is a wonderful addition to that mission.
Come celebrate our heritage and be part of this special moment for the community!
