Music to resound at Hobbs State Park visitor center in June

The public is invited to join the Friends of Hobbs and Hobbs State Park to Celebrate a New Education Pavilion with Live Music by “National Park Radio.” There will be music, door prizes, and good food, at Arkansas’s largest State Park.

This half-million-dollar project will be funded by the Friends of Hobbs and Arkansas State Parks. The new pavilion will expand the classroom to the outdoors, allowing for increased learning opportunities for schools and the public alike.

National Park Radio is a new modern folk band born and based in the natural beauty of the Ozark Mountains in Arkansas. An all-acoustic band featuring well-written original songs and beautiful vocals, NPR has a unique sound that is easy to love.
