Arkansas Heritage Month

Every May is Arkansas Heritage Month. Each year features a different theme and a cool poster. In 2003, Heritage Month focused on the Bicentennial of the Louisiana Purchase, the event that made Arkansas American. The centerpiece of the month's activities was the display of the actual Louisiana Purchase Treaty at the Old State House Museum.
The theme for 2007 is Our Business Is Heritage.
