Becca Martin Brown, from Northwest Arkansas Media, says two classic period pieces are coming to area stages.
Ozarks At Large
Bob Livingston is spending some time in Eureka Springs...writing, playing, teaching. He's a founder of the Lost Gonzo Band and has played all around the world.
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, Spring is officially here, and warmer weather will soon bring with it insects like mayflies and damsel flies out and about. But before those bugs mature, they spend their young lives as nymphs in local waterways. We visit a local creek to see what is swimming and crawling beneath the surface. Plus, a conversation with another one of this year's gubernatorial candidates, Mike Ross. The Democrat has aspirations that stretch beyond this November. And back-handsprings and lateral bars: what it takes to be one of the best gymnastics programs in the country. We spend some time with the Arkansas Razorback Gymbacks, who will host this year's national championship regionals this week.
A national report considers several different factors when determining the health of every county in the country.
The new Ozark Mountain Regional Public Water Authority which delivers Bull Shoals Lake water to towns and districts across Boone, Newton, and Searcy Counties is in trouble. As Jacqueline Froelich reports, several towns that signed on to the drinking water pact appear to be stricken by buyer’s remorse. (Correction: Marshall is in Searcy County and Lead Hill is in Boone County. In my report I erroneously reversed the towns’ locations.)A new report places Benton and Washington counties as the two healthiest in the state. Plus the Hogeye Marathon returns and severe weather is a possibility over the next twenty-four hours.
On this edition of Ozarks, a conversation with House speaker designate Jeremy Gillam. Plus, we tour a compounding pharmacy in Johnson.
Next month is National Poetry Month. For this month's edition of our segment Three People, we ask three poets to talk about their form of artistic expression.
Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large
Friday, May 16, 2014
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, we conclude our series of conversations with candidates in primary races with GOP Congressional candidate Bruce Westerman. We also welcome Barrett Baber back into the Firmin-Garner Performance Studio to hear a new take on one of his songs.
A new book expands the understanding of Mexico's indigenous people and their interactions with Europeans over the past several centuries.
Arkansas Lottery Officials update the Legislative Oversight Committee on decreasing lottery revenue. A group advocates at the state capitol for fairer tax laws, and the Ben Geren Aquatics Center moves forward as the first construction bids will soon be awarded.
"Wonderful Unknown" by Ingrid Michaelson (featuring Greg Laswell)
The designation for a stretch of highway in Arkansas is changing to Interstate 49.
Before the Amazeum broke ground on a permanent space this morning, we visit their tinkering studio to learn through experience.
"Appreciated" by Rixton
