Ozark Folk Center State Park

Another day, another Arkansas State Park. And yet another wonderful adventure. This state park celebrates the folk arts practiced here over the last centuries, and we watched demos of woodcarving, barrel making, weaving, quilting, cooking, dress making, doll making, typesetting, pottery, blacksmithing, furniture making, basket weaving, broom making, candle dipping, and more, and heard a band with guitars, fiddle, mandolins, banjo, hammered dulcimer, and bass fiddle.





We also visited an old house and a one-room school house.
