Events in Paragould today

Hosted by the St. Bernards Foundation, this monthly Volunteer Interest Meeting takes place on the first Thursday and highlights ways to support the community through St. Bernards. Attendees can explore volunteer opportunities, learn more about what is involved, and find inspiration to make a meaningful impact.

This weekly gathering features a variety of vendors, live music, and food trucks, with festivities continuing throughout the season.

Explore the heart of yoga in a community-focused session at Craighead Forest Park. Meet near the Jerry Bookout Memorial Playground, where a yard sign will mark the gathering spot. Parking and a bathroom are close by. This free class highlights more than poses on a mat and begins with about 30 minutes of seated practice. If sitting on the ground is uncomfortable, bring an extra towel or blanket, a firm pillow, or a yoga block to elevate the hips. A foldable chair is also an option, though it will not be used during the practice portion for safety. Please bring a yoga mat, towel, or blanket, along with your own hydration, and wear clothing you can move in comfortably. Donations are welcome and help fund reparative support for Indigenous peoples in Arkansas, programs empowering women and children in India where yoga was codified thousands of years ago, and shared accessories that make local classes more accessible. Beneficiaries include the American Indian Center of Arkansas, the Surya-Chandra Foundation, and supplies for live classes with Dee such as mats and blocks. All classes take place if the weather permits.

Activities are planned for Saturday.
