SUMMARY:Arkansas Roots Music Festival: Roots of Sister Rosetta Tharpe
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we commemorate the life\, legacy\, and lasting influence of the Godmother of Rock ’n’ Roll and Arkansas music legend Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

Featuring live performances by Erin Enderlin\, Mae Estes\, Reverend Greg Spradlin\, and the Delta Soul Singers\, this year’s Roots Festival highlights the musical traditions that shaped Sister Rosetta’s sound and the generations of artists she influenced—from Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley to Little Richard and beyond. \nUse the link below to purchase tickets. \nBit.ly/ARMF_2026

SUMMARY:Ragged Old Flag: Johnny Cash and the American Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we celebrate America 250 with a new exhibit\, Ragged Old Flag: Johnny Cash and the American Experience. Explore the story of American history and patriotism through the powerful music and message of Johnny Cash. \nThrough lyrics\, photographs\, artifacts\, and historical context\, visitors will experience how Johnny Cash’s music captured the complexities of loving one’s country while challenging it to live up to its highest ideals. The exhibit highlights how patriotism can be expressed not only through pride and tradition\, but also through conscience\, compassion\, and courage. \nRagged Old Flag invites visitors to reflect on what it means to be American—and how music can tell our national story in ways history books alone cannot.
