What do Arkansas gravestones tell us about the living? ✨ Join us for a Not Strictly History session with author Abby Burnett. We’re diving into her new book, Though Silent They Speak, to explore the stories behind the state’s most unusual burial grounds, from hidden rural carvings to the monuments of our city centers. Whether it’s a graveyard on the grounds of a former internment camp or private tombs in public spaces, these sites hold our history. Details: 📅 May 13 ⏰ 6:30 p.m. 📍 In-person + Live on Zoom ✍️ Book sale and signing to follow!

Who are these men? 🧐📸 For this week's #PhotoIDFriday, we’re stepping back into the Jeff Brown Feed Mill on February 23,1952. While we believe this was taken in Springdale, we’re missing the most important part: the names of the people pictured. Can you help us identify them? 💬 Comment if you recognize a face or have a memory of the mill! 📤 Share this to your Stories to reach more long-time NWA residents. 🚩 Tag us @ShilohMuseum in your posts so we can track the IDs! Every name added helps preserve the true story of the Ozarks. 🏛️📜 Photo from the Shiloh Museum’s Earlene Brown Henry Collection (S-2014-13-32). #ShilohMuseum #SpringdaleArkansas #NWAhistory #OzarkLife
