This conversation on memory work in the Buffalo River valley and screening of Misty Langdon's documentary film is part of Digital Buffalo. The ongoing 50th Anniversary Celebration of the Buffalo National River continued November 16, 2022, with a discussion on the importance of memory work and the preservation of stories of people and places in the Buffalo region. The event originally took place in-person at the Historic Shiloh Meeting House in Springdale, Arkansas, and was livestreamed via Zoom.
The video begins with a discussion between Virginia Siegel, Coordinator of the Arkansas Folk and Traditional Arts Program with Misty Langdon, owner and operator of Steel Creek Cabins and descendent of the historic Villines family. Langdon is an independent researcher preserving the history of Newton County and the legacy of her family in the region. She is the seventh generation of the Villines family, which has been on the same farm for 131 years and settled on the Buffalo 185 years ago. The family recently received the “Century Old Farm” award. The discussion will be followed by screening of portions of Langdon’s documentary “Remnants Project: Stories of the Arkansas Ozarks and Buffalo River.”
This event was part of the Digital Buffalo project, which has been sponsored by the U of A Chancellor’s innovation Fund and is under the direction of the U of A Humanities Center and U of A Libraries. News on upcoming events, as well as videos of past events and a developing library of digital documents, is available at the project website.
