FEATURES OF HISTORIC BENTONVILLE
Crystal Bridges takes its name from a
nearby natural spring and the bridge
construction incorporated in the building,
designed by world-renowned architect
Moshe Safdie. A series of pavilions
nestled around two spring-fed ponds house
galleries, meeting and classroom spaces,
and a large, glass-enclosed gathering
hall. Guest amenities include a restaurant
on a glass-enclosed bridge overlooking
the ponds, a Museum Store designed by
architect Marlon Blackwell, and a library
featuring more than 50,000 volumes of art
reference material. Sculpture and walking
trails link the museum’s 120-acre park to
downtown Bentonville, Arkansas.

The Walmart Museum is as much a part
of Walmart’s history as the exhibits and
artifacts that it houses. First opened in
1990, the museum was known as the
Walmart Visitor Center. But as times
changed and the term “Visitor Center”
came to refer more to regional, state, and
local tourism offices, it became apparent
that a name change was needed. And
so, today, The Walmart Museum carries
on the mission it always has: to honor
Walmart’s legacy, demonstrate its core
values, and cast a vision of Walmart
tomorrow.

The Razorback Regional Greenway in
Northwest Arkansas is a project that has
been years in the making. The concept of a
regional greenway project has been a goal
of regional planners, cities, and residents
of Northwest Arkansas for more than two
decades. This vision was supported by the
Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning
Commission (NWARPC), which in 2000
began a long-range planning process that
included regional trails as a key component.
A task force formed by the NWARPC
conducted public meetings and facilitated a
coordinated effort among the communities
of Northwest Arkansas.
