Arkansas Underfoot

There’s a lot going on underfoot in Arkansas. This gallery at the Mid-America Science Museum explores the state’s geology through interactive exhibits, fossils, artifacts, and media.

As a writer and exhibit developer on this project, I worked closely with the Exploratorium design team, as well as with Arkansas geologists, soil scientists, and videographers, to develop and write 12 exhibits.
