Join us and our partners at the Arkansas Coalition of Marshallese (ACOM) for the second event of the 2022 Stroll The Atolls Festival, a two-day event of Marshallese community celebrations and programs.

Come enjoy an afternoon of free, family-friendly activities including drop-in artmaking, culinary adventures, and Marshallese storytelling—all centered around the important, life-sustaining role of the coconut in Marshallese culture and history. This outdoor event will offer guests the opportunity to practice coconut carving, creating coconut oil, crafts, and more. Marshallese elders will share stories and histories centered around coconuts each hour on the hour.

 

Free, no tickets required. Drop in anytime from 12 to 3 p.m.
