EACC Fall 2018 TOUR Hhoro 1ho Horio moots 1ho Dotal Wilson, AR Friday, October 26th 2018 Wilson, Arkansas is located on Highway 61, deep in the heart of the American South.

Founded by Robert E. Lee Wilson in 1886, a small town with great ambitions, was once the most important company in the South. From the Wilson family story to its authentic artisanal traditions and collection of ancient aboriginal artifacts, the town occupies a singular position in the landscape of the American South and the Mississippi Delta regions. Among the unique historic sites are the revitalized Tudor-inspired town square, the historic cotton gin, and the Hampson Archeological Museum, which houses a rare collection of late Mississippian artifacts from the nearby Nodena site. Through an array of educational, cultural and economic initiatives, Wilson pays tribute to this heritage and brings the story of Wilson to life for its visitors. The price of $79 includes transportation, lunch at the renewed Wilson Cafe, and tours of the Hampson Museum and the Delta School.

Deadline for registration and payment is Friday, September 28th.
