Each event will feature a historical or contemporary film and leave room for dialogue, reflection and the opportunity to explore issues relevant to the world today.

As 2022 winds to a close, Arkansas PBS extends heartfelt gratitude to all of those who made our work possible this year through your financial support. We don’t take your contributions lightly – they mean so much to us and to your viewing neighbors across the state, especially those who can’t afford to make a donation to our network. Your generosity makes a world of difference, especially in supporting our ability to bring you more Arkansas stories that you won’t see anywhere else.
Arkansas PBS and libraries across the state are joining forces to collect new and gently used sweaters and winter clothing items to share with our neighbors in need. Won’t you help a neighbor and help continue Fred Rogers’ legacy for the 2022 Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood Sweater Drive?
