This event was designed to bring awareness in our community as October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month with the goals of educating the public what domestic violence is and that it does not discriminate within any demographics.

"Almost, Maine"
2022-10-28 - 2022-10-30 | AR
Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place so far north, it’s almost not in the United States. It’s almost in Canada. And it’s not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. It almost doesn’t exist. One cold, clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful midwinter night’s dream. For more details, visit https://www.arkansaspublictheatre.org/.
