Our weekend events have changed to prepare for rainy weather and to partner with UA Little Rock’s “The Path of Totality.” There will still be events all 3 days with performances by local spoken word artists, musical artists, visual artists, dancers, and a live deejay. There will still be merchandise vendors, several food trucks, and telescope classes taught by UAMS outside; voter registration sign-up, children’s book readings, an art exhibition, and additional shopping on the inside.
