Opera in the Ozarks at Inspiration Point
Opera in the Ozarks at Inspiration Point is a unique festival founded by Dr. Henry Hobart in 1950. Affiliated with the National Federation of Music Clubs (NFMC), Opera in the Ozarks has earned the reputation of being a prominent training program for all singers interested in pursuing a career in opera. One of the outstanding features of the program is that every participant is afforded an opportunity to perform in fully produced operas, an evening scenes program or an educational outreach program taken to the several areas in Northwest Arkansas. Four weeks of rehearsal and four weeks of performances are under the supervision of a professional staff. Opera in the Ozarks is located seven miles west of Eureka Springs, Arkansas, on scenics Route 62. One of the most picturesque spots in the south central U.S., Inspiration Point is a look-out site situated atop Candy Rock Mountain between the beautiful White River Valley and Beaver Lake.
About Us - A History of Opera in the Ozarks at Inspiration Point
Inspiration Point, poetically described a “a mountainous place not too many miles form Heaven” is located northwest of Eureka Springs, Arkansas, on Scenic U.S. Highway 62 and overlooks the White River valley some 600 feet below. Creating one of the most idyllic scenes in the entire Ozark Mountains, the lowlands merge in the background into range after range of the incomparably beautiful Ozarks.
In 1928 a German-born architectural engineer, Charles Mowers, purchased the land overlooking the valley and commenced construction of a castle patterned after those of the Rhine River valley. In 1932 the unfinished castle and the grounds were purchased by Rev. Charles Reign Scoville, a Christian missionary who completed the castle and gave it its name, Inspiration Point. When he died in 1938 his wife gave the entire Inspiration Point estate to Phillips University, a Christian University in Enid, Oklahoma.
