Buckyball At Crystal Bridges - Museum in Bentonville - 600 Museum Way, USA

Come after the sun goes down, recline on the benches and let your imagination take you away with this art piece.

If you love art, this is a great interactive piece in Bentonville. Just outside of the museums, you can lay on one of the benches as long as you like and watch the colors change. We stayed for about 30 minutes and never saw the same pattern twice. Very relaxing way to end an evening. A unique experience on the grounds of Crystal Bridges. To sit on the contoured benches and watch the light show & stars is very relaxing. only probably was that a bunch of the lights weren't working properly (always stuck on white with no color change and several more that just were burned out) Even then, it's a beautiful light display.

Art. Whatever. I'm not cultured enough, I guess! It's an interesting light up giant soccer ball. There are benches you can recline on to watch the show. It's right off a large, free parking lot, so it is easy to get to. You can get to the rest of the museum campus with an easy walk from here.

Mediocre food. Baby back ribs super dry, like they sat out all day.- they had to bring out fresher cooked ribs. The waitress was very helpful and did an excellent job.

Bring wine! Or you can be family friendly and skip the wine. That was or choice because we forgot the wine. The reclining benches are big enough for a family or a couple and a romantic date.

Very cool spot. Comfortable benches to lounge on before or after visiting Crystal Bridges. Best early evening, all lit up.

Our visit was not enjoyable. The museum closed early because of a wedding. None of the light exhibits were working. The evening show was canceled because of bad weather that happened and ended hours earlier. We asked an associate why the light exhibits weren't working, he didn't know, but thought maybe August or September. The whole place has construction so perhaps that was the reason? Finally, some signs said the place closed at sunset, but the shuttle driver explained the shuttle would run until 10:30. Whole place very unorganized.

Absolutely beautiful piece at the entrance of Crystal bridges! I could sit on the benches & look at it forever!
