Celebrate Arkansas Heritage Month with hot bugs, cold beer, and old buildings at the Preservation Crustaceans Crawfish Boil on Saturday, May 4, 2024. This backyard cookout takes place once again behind Clements & Associates Architecture, 507 Main Street, North Little Rock, in the Argenta Historic District. The fun, family-friendly event benefits Preserve Arkansas, the only statewide nonprofit dedicated to preserving Arkansas’s historic places.

This year, the festivities will include a very special event: the official announcement of the 2024 Most Endangered Places list. The Most Endangered Places Program began in 1999 to raise awareness of historically and architecturally significant properties facing threats such as demolition, deterioration, and insensitive development. Listed properties benefit from heightened visibility that can result in funding and other types of assistance to facilitate their restoration. The announcement will take place at 6:00 p.m. Music will be provided by DJ Loren Hinton, UA Cossatot Radio Department Director.
