Exquisite Exteriors

Take the kids to see their favorite stories come to life on the Children's Theatre stage at the Arkansas Art Center. The entertainment company was recognized by The Drama League as "one of the best regional theater companies in America," and has wowed audiences with performances like The Jungle Book, A Year With Frog and Toad, Alice in Wonderland, The Giant and the Beanstalk, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

Brave the waves in the wave pool, shoot through water slides, and bum around in the lazy river at Wild River Country water park. The state's largest water park offers 12 rides and attractions, meaning there are plenty of opportunities for adults and children to make a splash. If you're worn out and water logged, play a family game of volleyball on the sand court to dry off.

Party from dusk until dawn at the Electric Cowboy. The bar offers nightly drink specials so even ballers on a budget can get their drink on while dancing the night away. Get ready to boogie to the best in Top 40, hip-hop, pop, rock, and country - it won't take long for you to make the Electric Cowboy your weekend nightlife spot.
