Little Historians: Cows, Milk, and Butter
Moo-ve on over to the Shiloh Museum for a hands-on exploration of farm life! This month, our Little Historians series introduces Pre-K students (ages 4–6) to the fascinating life science of cows with Cows, Milk, and Butter! Children will discover the vital role dairy played in early Ozark homes. The gathering will feature an engaging storybook session and a close-up look at authentic artifacts from our education collection. The highlight of the morning? A chance to meet our realistically painted milk cow, Buttercup, and practice the art of milking! This program is designed to spark curiosity through tactile learning and play. No registration is required.

May 13, 2026 -Arkansas Gravestones and Graveyards
Arkansas Gravestones and Graveyards
Join Abby Burnett for a discussion on her latest book, Though Silent They Speak: Arkansas Gravestones and Graveyards in this Not Strictly History program. Following the talk there will be books for sale and a signing. Though Silent They Speak: Arkansas Gravestones and Graveyards is a fascinating and informative guidebook to the most unusual graves and graveyards in Arkansas. Within the pages, readers explore showy marble monuments in city cemeteries and haunting, primitive carvings and inscriptions discovered in isolated, rural graveyards, while telling the stories behind these burials. Examples include private tombs in public places, African American burial grounds, a graveyard on the grounds of a former Japanese internment camp, and two small graveyards that are now state parks. This in-person event will also be available online via Zoom. To watch live online, fill out the form below.
