This is the second time having the talented Sean Harrison at the Yellow House don’t miss out on this fun storytelling musician.
Sean was born in Nashville and raised mostly in Fayetteville, Arkansas, where he grew up in the literary home of the late novelist/screenwriter William Harrison, probably best known for the movie Rollerball. The father taught creative writing at the University of Arkansas, which put the son in frequent company of numerous talented writing students and visiting writers. It also put him in touch with a lively college campus during the turbulence and cultural renaissance of the late 1960s. Sean lived some years in Europe, then Texas, with a lot of traveling and finally back home to Fayetteville. “I have busked in London, Bath, Paris, Florence and Venice, southern Spain and other parts of Europe, New York City, Dallas/Ft. Worth,” Sean said. “It’s only looking back that I can appreciate where I’ve been. I don’t regret anything – even my biggest mistakes.”

“Conflict and Consensus” is the theme of the 18th annual Ozarks Studies Symposium set for Sept. 18-20 at the West Plains Civic Center. Hosted by Missouri State University-West Plains (MSU-WP), the event celebrates various aspects of Ozarks culture and history through a variety of presentations and performances.
“The presenters at this year’s conference engage with a broad array of topics, some directly related to the theme and others with a more tangential connection,” says Dr. Jason McCollom, associate professor of history at MSU-WP and coordinator of the symposium. “These topics include Ozarks-based fiction and poetry, studies on a variety of historical-based conflicts, land and food, health, biographies of impactful Ozarkers, and storytelling,” McCollom explained.
“Connecting with the presenters and the community has always been an important aspect of the symposium as well. Community members are always warmly welcomed at all the panel presentations,” McCollom added.
WPCA Art Exhibit – As in past years, WPCA will sponsor an event related to the symposium’s theme beginning at 5:30 p.m. Sept. 18. The Harlin Museum will present an exhibit called “War in the Ozarks” featuring artwork, photos, and artifacts from their collection. The collection includes historical materials about Ozarkers who served in all the national conflicts as well as stories and artists’ renderings of local skirmishes of the Civil War. Refreshments will be served, and representatives from the Harlin Museum will be available to discuss the exhibit.
Keynote Address – The symposium’s keynote address begins at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 19, in the Magnolia Room. Olivia Paschal of the University of Virginia will present a talk titled “Creating the Neoliberal State: Arkansas in the Clinton Era.” Paschal will discuss the corporate impact of companies such as Wal-Mart and Tyson Foods on Northwest Arkansas, and their relations with Gov. Bill Clinton’s political machine in the 1980s. “As Northwest Arkansas continues to be reshaped by corporate interests, Paschal’s research illuminates the precursors to a changing Ozarks,” McCollom noted.
