From the artist's caption, "Leo Villareal is a sculptor who uses light as his medium. Through the technology of LED bulbs and computer software that Villareal designs, the artist creates ever-changing displays of moving light and color. Named in honor of the theorist and engineer Buckminster Fuller, Buckyball features two nested geometric spheres that take the shape of a Carbon 60 molecule. The structure is covered in LED tubes capable of producing 16 million distinct colors." Buckyball is illuminated from 10 am to 11 pm every day.

I really loved the fact that they had benches that positions the body so that you're lying down and gazing towards the ball.

Get there early! We were lucky the Saturday dinner rush was moving along gracefully. They are busy and crowded. If you have the ability to wait for some of the best Italian food Eureka Springs' offers, please wait!! They do not take call in names or have reservations lists. They are old school. It's based on server upon name list leave and wait. The bar upstairs is open, most diners choose to have a drink before their dinner. Understood to be optional. I suggest to try something new. Aways exceptional to live a little. I do recommend linguine with the house favorite meatballs. They are very welcoming at the door, and all the staff are great with peopling. They strive to have you feel welcome. Albeit the wait, it's worth the wait. Littles are welcome.. I have seen large table seatings, but this place is very limited on space. Comfortably, we sat well without bumping in our party of four.

They only open from 4-8 PM, and the wait is real--usually 1 to 1.5 hours. But it's part of the experience. There are cozy indoor and outdoor areas to hang out, grab a drink, play board games, and even strike up conversations with other people waiting. We usually do. The restaurant itself is set in a house--small, warm, and full of character. Even the little details stood out this time, like the updated photos on the walls with new black frames. We started with the roasted garlic smashed in butter with bread--easily one of the best starters they have. The stuffed mushrooms are a must too--fresh, simple, and done right. Tonight's special was lasagna, and if you see it, order it. They only make it a couple times a week. Thick layers, rich without being heavy, and just a subtle hint of cinnamon that makes it stand out. The spaghetti and meatballs is a classic here, and they execute it perfectly every time. Now the tough part... The tiramisu has always been our gold standard. We've compared every tiramisu we've had to this one--and usually order 2-3 to go. But this time, it missed. It was heavy on whipped cream and lacking that bold coffee flavor and the ladyfingers that make it what it is. We were honestly disappointed, especially since it's the dessert we rave about to everyone. That said, one off night won't keep us away. We'll definitely be back--and hoping the tiramisu returns to being the best we've had. Till then, I am updating this place to 4 stars from 5

It is by artist Griffin Loop. The caption next to the sculpture reads, "A paper airplane represents youthful innocence and fun. It is one of the first things we create as children and launch into the world. The Launch Intention project, based around this childhood symbol, takes us back to that carefree imagination and freedom. It stands for tapping into the intuitive self and truth we all have. Embracing the dreams and path we are ultimately supposed to take. A platform to solidify these dreams and share with each other and the world. A symbol for optimism and hope. Self. Community. Support. Vulnerability and accountability. Launch Intention is a reminder for all to free yourself. Set intention and launch into action and the world." From the artist's statement, "I create to explore and communicate with myself and the world. To push. To grow. To question. To embrace. To respect what we as humans can do and pay homage to the infinite powers and beauties beyond. When I remove identity from the equation, anything is possible. I will always explore further." Check it out as you walk through Bentonville. And maybe when you get to a place you have some paper, make your own airplane. [Review 2350 of 2024 - 398 in Arkansas - 23364 overall]

It is by artist Timothy Jorgensen. The nearby caption reads, "The intention of this piece is to create and empower a sense of ownership in the community of Bentonville. We often ask what makes our community so special. Many jump to the conclusion of materialistic objects and locations but often overlook the fact that without the people, a community is simply empty buildings. People are the driving force that make up a community, the neighbors you are surrounded by or the friends across town. Found stands as a beacon of pride, reflecting the faces of people as they pass by and glance over. Capturing a moment of their time to reflect on who they are and where they come from." The artwork was funded by the Bentonville Public Art Advisory Committee. [Review 19804 overall - 280 in Arkansas - 777 of 2023.]
