Texarkana, Texas has a unique name that reflects its position at the crossroads of three states: Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana. When strolling through downtown, take the opportunity to stand in Texas and Arkansas simultaneously at the Texarkana Federal Courthouse. Noteworthy events such as the Four State Fair & Rodeo highlight the city's vibrant social calendar. Texarkana's festive spirit shines during annual celebrations like Mardi Gras and Christmas, where spirited parades fill the streets. In addition, the Taste of Texarkana and the Run on the Line Half-Marathon are examples of community unity, channeling their proceeds to support local organizations. For museum enthusiasts, the Four State Auto Museum showcases vintage automobiles, while The Gallery at 1894 exhibits a diverse collection of local and regional artwork. If you are looking for time outdoors, then you will find comfort in the calm landscapes of Bobby Ferguson Park, the tranquil waters of Millwood Lake, and the pet-friendly environment of Petsafe JefFURson Dog Park. Among this diversity, there's undoubtedly a place for everyone within this welcoming community.
