Celebrate the spirit of creativity and history on this curated day trip to Northwest Arkansas. Your journey begins with a scratch kitchen lunch at family-owned Azul Tequila Bistro, located on the historic Bentonville Square. Then, on to the centerpiece of the day: a visit to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, with a private tour of the landmark exhibition “America 250: Common Threads.” This immersive showcase weaves together the diverse narratives and artistic heritage of our country. An early engraving of the Declaration of Independence will anchor a group of historic documents displayed alongside textiles, paintings, toys, and other works from 1776 to the present day. We’ll cap off the afternoon with a sweet surprise, finishing this day filled with culture and inspiration on a high note, before heading back to Springfield.
