Show Travel film invites you to experience the Ozarks "The Ozark Experience" is the title of the next travel film lecture to be presented at Utah Technical College at Salt Lake on Wednesday, Feb. 13, at 7:30 p.m. The college is in its 14 th year of such presentations, held in the main level auditorium in the Calvin L. Rampton Technology Building, on the north end of the Redwood Road campus. The $3 per person admittance at the door will introduce the audience to lecturer Curt Matson who, with his wife and son, moved to the Ozark Mountains of north-central Arkansas toward the end of 1980. The film includes the contrasting variety of the four seasons, and the abundant recreational activity in the forests, lakes and rivers of the Ozarks. It shows the folk culture of the area, manifest through the artistry of native craftsmen, from making "applehead dolls" to fiddles, quilts, and woodcarving. There are shots of tourist attractions like Eureka Springs, one time a place of "miraculous healing," the giant seven-story high Christ of the Ozarks statue, and the Great Passion Play. The Buffalo River country features the giant bluffs astride the river. Then there is t lie perspective from the dangerous but beautiful goat trail. Curt Matson is renowned for quality of photography, as well as his polished wit and verve before lecture audiences. |
