Greek Amphitheatre at Southern Arkansas University
Columbia County
Magnolia A&M's class of 1936 voted to build an amphitheater as its gift to the school. National Youth Administration workers did the labor between 1936 and 1938, and the stage was ready enough for a performance of Antigone on May 14, 1936, for Arkansas's centennial.
