When Hard Times Got Harder: Arkansas’s Hill Country in the 1920s and 1930s

For many Americans, the Great Depression starts with the stock market crash of October 1929. In the Arkansas hill country, it was not that simple. For families scattered across the Ozarks and Ouachitas, hard times began years earlier. Farm prices had collapsed after World War I. Timber operations were shrinking. Small towns depended on farmers with less and less money to spend. Roads were poor, schools struggled for funds, and cash was often scarce even during what the rest of the country remembered as the prosperous 1920s.

Walmart AMP plans expansions for artists, club members

The Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion plans to expand its hospitality complex for private members and events and its artists wing for performers. Why it matters: The region's largest concert venue wants artists to have a good experience so they are more likely to return, Walmart AMP vice president Brian Crowne said in a news release. The hospitality complex expansion will allow the venue to take more private club members after being at capacity for several years, spokesperson Jennifer Wilson told Axios in an email. Memberships start at $5,000 a year. A rendering shows plans for a gym and lounge for artists.
