About Providence Park

Founded in North Little Rock, Arkansas, the organization serves its homeless neighbors through its core project, Providence Park. As a result of years of study and research, and connections with our chronically homeless neighbors, we have decided to replicate Community First! Village in Austin, Texas. We believe, along with Alan Graham and his team in Austin, that the single greatest cause of homelessness is a profound, catastrophic loss of family. It’s from this understanding and learning alongside the staff at Community First! Village, that a replicator village is needed in central Arkansas to provide long term care and support for our brothers and sisters in need.
In partnership with Pulaski County, we are creating a 50-acre master planned community that provides affordable, permanent housing and a supportive community for individuals coming out of chronic homelessness.

About NPSOA

NPSOA’s mission statement is simple, yet ambitious. The National Print & Sign Owners Association is dedicated to delivering a variety of products and services that enhance the growth and profitability of its members through advocacy, educational programs, publications, research, and the sharing of technical information. We seek to serve a broad audience involved in the graphic communications industry, which includes printing and copying firms, and those firms offering mailing services, sign-making and large format printing.

Macon Road Show Comes to North Little Rock
2025-04-28 19:00 - 21:30 | Four Quarter Bar, 415 Main St, North Little Rock, AR, 72114, United States
The Macon Road Show is rescheduling their trip to NLR!
(After a snow day fiasco back in February) Oxford American is excited to bring an unforgettable night of soul, blues, and Southern rock to Four Quarter Bar on Monday, April 28, 2025, at 7:00 pm featuring music by Greg Spradlin & the Delta Soul Singers and Macon Music Revue. Doors will open at 6 pm, so come early to enjoy a delicious southern inspired menu from Four Quarter Bar.
Purchase Tickets
Greg Spradlin has been a professional musician since before he could legally drive. He used a fake driver’s license to play in bars and learn from his mentors, and he traveled to the Delta to search for the homes and graves of his music idols. From a young age, he played honky-tonks with legendary Sun Records rockabilly artists and played blues clubs and juke joints with the likes of Frank Frost and Sam Carr. Greg’s love of the Delta and its music has led to his work on projects, such as relocating Levon Helm’s boyhood home into downtown Marvell, AR, as well as fundraising and commissioning the bust of Helm that now resides in the house and museum. In addition, Greg helped introduce legislation to designate memorial highways in the Delta named for local residents, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Louis Jordan, Levon Helm, Johnny Cash, and the Americana Music Highway.
Joining Greg will be the Delta Soul Singers—a collection of some of Central Arkansas’s finest voices, featuring Crystal Hayes, Michael Dotson, and Zetoria Curry.
Paying tribute to its city’s musical inheritance, Macon Music Revue proudly calls itself a “preservation band.” The five-piece group takes the stage at historic Grant’s Lounge every Wednesday night to mine the catalogs of hometown heroes Little Richard, Otis Redding, and The Allman Brothers Band, while also digging deep into the songs of Capricorn Records. The Revue also puts its spin on cuts by James Brown, whose career was kick-started in Macon, by Atlanta Rhythm Section, whose lead singer—the late Ronnie Hammond—was a native Maconite, and by R.E.M.
The undeniable power of Macon’s soul-and-Southern Rock bloodline radiates through the gospel-soaked vocals of Charles Davis, the attention-holding solos and slide work of guitarist Dustin McCook, and the organ and piano of Ethan Hamlin, the 24-year-old following in the footsteps of his Macon keyboard predecessors, Gregg Allman and Chuck Leavell. The Revue is anchored by drummer Caleb Melvin and bassist Evan Bentzel, who embrace the laid back lineage of Macon’s groove and keep it firmly fastened in the pocket.
Thank you to Oxford American, Visit Macon, and North Little Rock Tourism for making this event possible.
