Territorial Arkansas Living History School Day

Meeting Place: Davidsonville Historic State Park
Admission: Free
Trade the school books for hands-on-history at Davidsonville Historic State Park as we celebrate 200 years since the construction of the oldest courthouse in Arkansas. Teachers, bring your class and come explore town as it would have been during a hey-day market week and explore the pattern of peoples and trades that made Arkansas what it is today. Try your hand at tomahawk throwing, carpentry, quill writing, historic games, and more. A variety of townsfolk will be present to talk about experiences, ranging from the doctor and his medical ideas, to the unsung background work of women. Contact the park interpreter at (870) 892-4708 to register your class today. Space is limited and will likely fill up early.
