Opening of Hanamaki Mokuiku Playland: An Interactive Experience from Japan

We’re excited to welcome Hanamaki Mokuiku Playland: An Interactive Experience from Japan back to Hot Springs this fall — and we need YOUR help to make it a success!
Last year, more than 1,200 visitors explored the exhibit, and it’s thanks to the incredible support of our volunteers that the team from Hanamaki is returning with a much larger installation. This year’s exhibit will be open November 1 – December 14 at the Garland County Library Auditorium, offering families a hands-on experience with beautifully crafted wooden toys and the Japanese concept of Mokuiku — learning through play and connection with nature.
Please make plans to visit the exhibit and bring your family, tell your friends and volunteer. Volunteers help welcome visitors, guide families through interactive play areas, and support this unique cultural exchange. 📅 Sign up for a volunteer shift today.
Together, we can make Hanamaki Mokuiku Playland an unforgettable experience for children and families across our community!
