Annual Supper

Each fall, the Old State House Museum Associates host an Annual Supper, the most highly anticipated event of the year. This event, held in the historic 1885 House of Representatives Chamber on the second floor of the Old State House, features speakers of historical, political or regional importance. Past Suppers have been addressed by Winston Spencer Churchill; General (Retired) Wesley Clark, former commander of NATO forces; Governors Sidney McMath, Dale Bumpers, David Pryor and Frank White; William Ferris, Director of the Endowment for Humanities, and Dr. Jonathan Drummond-Webb, famed heart surgeon at Arkansas Children's Hospital; Ed Wilcox, President of Fox Television, and a number of famous authors.

For 2008, our featured speaker will be Actor/Producer Judge Reinhold.

Private Receptions

Throughout the year, OSHMA members become part of Arkansas's "A-list", with invitations to private receptions in advance of all exhibit openings. These special preview gatherings include refreshments in the Riverfront Room, members-only tours and exhibit discussions with the museum director and staff curator.

1836 Club

In addition to family and other special events, the 1836 Club holds regular happy-hour gatherings in downtown Little Rock, at times and places to be announced. These happy-hour events are always engaging and a lot of fun - and anyone interested in learning more about the 1836 Club (or just looking to enjoy good company) is invited to attend. We look forward to seeing you there. For more information contact Dan Beranek at (501) 371-0272.
