Arkansas Beauty

Local Attractions

Don’t Miss The Beauty.

Ecclesia College is located in the middle of Northwest Arkansas, one of the fastest growing communities in the country.  The area is comprised of four cities: Bentonville, Rogers, Springdale, and Fayetteville. Within a short drive there is something for everyone.

Don’t Miss The Adventure.

While the city life and culture is exciting, the true heart of Northwest Arkansas is heard loudest amidst the illustrious Ozark Mountain landscape, Arkansas’ best kept secret. EC students are just moments from sanctuary. God’s breath can be felt hiking along the famous Buffalo River, or spelunking in one of thousands of caves in the area. Whether taking a float trip down one of many beautiful rivers, fishing the best bass lakes in the US, or camping near Beaver Lake, the Great Outdoors of Northwest Arkansas provides exhilarating weekend escapes for many EC students.

Ecclesia students never have reason to be bored. Incredible fellowship and community combine with the area’s incredible culture and breathtaking surroundings to produce a vibrant atmosphere for both growth and study.

Don’t Miss The Arts.

Northwest Arkansas is an ever-increasing center for the performing arts. The Walton Arts Center in Fayetteville draws in many NY Broadway shows, concerts, and solo performances by noted entertainers. The community is eagerly awaiting the opening of the Crystal Bridge American Art Museum. A project funded by the Walton Family.  The new museum is projected to have one of the most premier collections of American Art, including pieces by acclaimed American painter Asher B. Durand, as well as Winslow Homer, Georgia O'Keeffe and Thomas Cole. The school is also very close to Eureka Springs, a hot spot for live entertainment. The town is also home to the world famous Passion play, depicting Christ’s death and resurrection.
