Big Poppa Bubble Brings the Fun to Crystal Bridges

Crystal Bridges is turning its grounds into a bubble party, and the whole thing is free. There’s enough going on to fill a few hours for all ages without anyone checking their phone. No tickets, no wristbands, no upcharge at the door. Just show up.

Soap And Showmanship

Headlining the afternoon is Big Poppa Bubble, a bubble artist who brings the kind of oversized, float-across-the-lawn bubbles that are hard to walk past without reaching out to touch one.

Splash Around and Get Crafty

There’s a splash pad for when the bubbles stop cutting it and you need to cool down, plus hands-on art stations open to all ages.

A bit of outdoor learning gets folded in too, the educational kind that kids tend not to notice is educational.

Stick Around After the Bubbles Pop

You’re spending the afternoon at one of NWA’s best spots for wandering, so it’s easy to stick around once the bubble fun wraps. Crystal Bridges’ galleries and wooded trails are just steps away. Check out Crystal Bridges event calendar for more fun events.
