Arts & Culture
Quite simply, our favorite place to be. Sunrise/sunset "Way of Color" by James Turrell is a must-experience. And the art, all of the art, an amazing and beautifully-curated museum. And it is free! (Some featured exhibits have a fee attached, but the museum galleries are free for everyone.)

Fabulous contemporary art and performance space just a couple blocks from Domino. Repurposed Kraft Cheese factory, factory feel intact with art, food, coffee, and a Tower Bar that is the tallest structure in Bentonville (open at 5 pm to the public).

A local treasure. Hiking trails galore, some right down to Beaver Lake. Historical and beautiful, peaceful, and the visitor's center has loads of activities year-round. If you are here in the winter, go on the Bald Eagle Cruise. Yes, they winter here in Arkansas!

It's a few hours' trip, but a beautiful drive! There are a lot of walking trails, but don't miss the "town" part of the park, Bathhouse Row, with a guided tour at Fordyce Bathhouse. You can enjoy the hot springs experience "updated" at Quapaw Bathhouse, or the old-fashioned, time honored way at Buckstaff. Good coffee at Kollective, good food at Rolando's.

Multi-screen, super modern, drinks and food at your recliner seat! Mostly first-run commercial films, you may find an independent film there as well. This could go up in "Drinks and Nightlife," too, as the full bar and restaurant is available without buying a movie ticket, and it's a nifty environment.
