Ozarks At Large
In the next few weeks you can do almost anything…and we have the list of events to prove it.
Becca Martin Brown says one of the best ways to spend time next week is watching paintings come to life at Crystal Bridges’ next Art Night Out event.
Tuesday, the Drum Corps International Summer Tour, made a stop at Bentonville’s Tiger Stadium. We meet on of the eight groups, the Crossmen, as they make their way to the 36th Annual DCI World Championships in Indianapolis.
Changes have already been made to the Arkansas Department of Community Corrections, with more changes still to come. Although the state's unemployment rate didn't change from May to June, that doesn't take into account several layoffs that have happened in the past month. Gas prices have been on the rise across Arkansas, with still higher prices on the horizon. And 39 permits have been issued for retail liquor sales in Benton County, leaving 16 potential permits still up for grabs.



The story behind the stories. A new event that lets ordinary people tell their stories, Speak for Yourself takes place tomorrow evening at the Fayetteville Underground. Ozarks at Large’s Emily Gollahon has this report.

After Pulaski County Circuit Court Judge Chris Piazza overturned the state’s constitutional ban on same-sex marriage late Friday, dozens of couples rushed to the only courthouse open in the state on Saturday to obtain licenses—in the “Wedding Capital of the South”--Eureka Springs. Jacqueline Froelich was there. (UPDATE: As of 10:45am May 12th, the Carroll County Clerk's office stopped issuing licenses to same-sex couples, until further notice.)
