Arkansas PBS Family Day returns this fall with the daylong celebration “’C’ is for Community!” Join us at our statewide headquarters for fun, family-friendly activities throughout the day focusing on arts and crafts, health and physical fitness, animals and nature, conservation and recycling, literacy, science and much more. We’ve invited your favorite PBS KIDS characters to meet and greet guests and take photos. Live entertainment includes performances by Papa Rap and momandpop, as well as a stage presentation from the Museum of Discovery. Plus, learn about the great programs Arkansas PBS is currently producing, tour the studios and meet the staff!
