MACARTHUR MUSEUM OF ARKANSAS MILITARY HISTORY: First Call: American Posters of World War I, posters played an important role in World War I, used not only to justify involvement in the conflict, but also to procure men and resources for the war effort. Posters helped raise more than $30 billion through the Liberty and Victory Loan drives and promoted home front conservation efforts. In addition to the posters, interpretive panels and artifacts will discuss U.S. involvement in the war, imagery used in the posters and their success in fundraising and recruitment. The exhibit will be available through Nov. 30. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday, 1-4 p.m. Sunday. For more information, call (501) 376-4602.
