Sightseeing
The mission of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art is to welcome all to celebrate the American spirit in a setting that unites the power of art with the beauty of nature.
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.
Crystal Bridges acknowledges and pays respect to the Osage, Caddo, and Quapaw people and elders past, present and future, offering deep gratitude to the ancestral land and water that supports it.

Rustic American restaurant in a historic church located in downtown Bentonville, focusing on local and sustainable cuisine. In 1849, John Ruskin wrote The Seven Lamps of Architecture which spread Gothic Revivalism across the western world. In 1904, that same style is used for the First Christian Church in downtown Bentonville. In 2015, Chef Matthew Cooper, son of a Methodist preacher, becomes the executive chef of this restaurant. In 2017, We proudly connect these moments to open The Preacher’s Son.

Located a short walk away at the 8th Street Market! Bike Rack Brewing Company got its name from the life style of the biking community. Just as children congregate at the bike rack before or after school, a bike rack symbolizes a meeting place. Fast forward to the current bike scene, after some hard (or friendly) competition on the trails, or a satisfying weekend work out, what better place to ride in for refreshing locally brewed thirst quenchers and some great conversation. Bike Rack Brewing Co. has three locations, each with their own unique vibe. Our first spot, The Experiment, now a small batch brewery and taproom at the Hub of Bentonville; right on the bike trail in the heart of the newly rezoned Arts District. Opened in May 2017, our second location, production brewery and taproom is a part of the 8th Street Market; a community focused food hub where tenants and merchants serve each other as well as the larger community. The third location is located in Downtown Springdale, a beer and coffee bar, open all day.
