Happy 4th of July Weekend! It’s a long weekend for most, and there’s lots going on to keep you and your extended family entertained. Be sure to check out our calendar so you don’t miss a thing – and if we’ve missed your event – post it! We want to know all about what’s happening around here.
Last Chance. This is the last weekend to see World of the Pharoahs at the Arkansas Arts Center. This exhibit is full of interesting artifacts from everyday life in ancient Egypt. Our ministaffers have seen it four different times and loved it each and every time. The exhibit closes on Monday, so don’t miss your chance to enjoy the treasures. Arkansas Arts Center, 9th & Commerce. (501) 372-4000.
Grab a Bite. It’s time for the fourth Foodie Fest in Argenta! Don’t miss this fun and delicious way to celebrate our nation’s birthday. Local fare from Ashley’s, Argenta Market, Ferneau’s, Starving Artist Cafe, Dizzy’s, and many more will be available for your tasting pleasure. The Certified Arkansas Farmers Market, arts and crafts and live music will all be happening, too! It’s going to be a great day in Argenta. Saturday, 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. Downtown North Little Rock, corner of 6th and Main Streets. Visit www.argentadc.org for more information.
See the Stars. Kids of all ages (that includes us) enjoy fireworks – especially on the 4th of July. And there’s no better place to see fireworks in Little Rock, than along the banks of the Arkansas River. Join your friends and family for Pops on the River Sunday night. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets and sit out under the stars. The Arkansas Symphony will entertain you with lots of great patriotic music, and then be prepared to be amazed at the very cool fireworks that will explode in the sky above. Sunday, gates open at 5:30 p.m. Arkansas Symphony Orchestra begins at 8:30 p.m. Fireworks begin at 9:30 p.m. No coolers allowed, but concessions are available.
