The University of Central Arkansas (UCA) Film Program has partnered with the Arkansas Cinema Society (ACS) and the Women鈥檚 Foundation of Arkansas – Girls of Promise Initiative (WFA) for the eighth annual Filmmaking Lab for Teen Girls (FL4TG). The free educational program will be held June 8-26 at the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts (AMFA). Space is limited, and applications are now being accepted at .

鈥淚 had the opportunity to serve as a directing mentor for the lab two years ago, and I was so impressed at the passion and drive by the young women,鈥� BT天堂Film Professor and FL4TG Program Director Emily Railsback said. 鈥淚’m excited to be the program director this summer, mentoring the girls who will create their own film in collaboration with professionals in the region, including BT天堂Film alumni.

鈥淭he girls will get time to develop their own stories, make a movie and screen the finished product at ACS鈥� Filmland Festival. I think how lucky my BT天堂film students would be if they had this educational opportunity early on to help set them up for what they want to do.鈥�

Taking place this summer in Little Rock, the FL4TG program gives young women a chance to experience screenwriting, directing, cinematography, editing, production design, lighting and sound recording, as well as ask questions about careers in the male-dominated world of cinema. ACS is taking one small step to help correct this inequity of women in the film workforce by giving young women the opportunity to take on leadership roles while learning the craft of this visual art under the watchful eye of industry professionals.

The FL4TG program is free for participants, which would not be possible without the generous support of the Women鈥檚 Foundation of Arkansas.

鈥淭he Women’s Foundation of Arkansas is thrilled to continue our support of the Filmmaking Lab for Teen Girls,鈥� Anna Beth Gorman, CEO of WFA, said. 鈥淧roviding young women with hands-on experience in this dynamic STEAM industry is an investment in their future as creative leaders.

Participants will develop a short story rooted in women鈥檚 empowerment and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math), followed by filming and editing the 5-minute short, which will screen during Filmland 2026 to be held Aug. 12-16 at AMFA. Past students from the Lab have had the opportunity for a private Q&A session with writer Lucy Alibar, Bert of directing duo Bert & Bertie, and award-winning actor and producer Jessica Chastain.

BT天堂Assistant Professor of History Dr. Buckley T. Foster (right) receives the 2026 J.G. Ragsdale Book Award from the Arkansas Historical Association, presented by association president Rachel Patton, for his book 鈥淪o Great Was the Slaughter: Market Hunting, Sportsmen, and Wildlife Conservation in Arkansas.鈥�

University of Central Arkansas Assistant Professor of History Dr. Buckley T. Foster has received the 2026 J.G. Ragsdale Book Award from the Arkansas Historical Association for his book, 鈥淪o Great Was the Slaughter: Market Hunting, Sportsmen, and Wildlife Conservation in Arkansas.鈥�

The annual award recognizes the best nonfiction, book-length study on any aspect of Arkansas history. Named for founding member John Gails Ragsdale, the honor highlights excellence in historical scholarship and contributions to understanding the state鈥檚 past. The award was presented during the association鈥檚 annual conference in Monticello, Arkansas.

鈥淚鈥檓 honored that the Arkansas Historical Association recognized this work and the history it represents,鈥� Foster said. 鈥淔rom starting the research to the book reaching my hands, this was a 10-year project.

鈥淭his award makes me feel it was a worthwhile endeavor.鈥�

鈥淪o Great Was the Slaughter鈥� tells an important and compelling story about the origins of Arkansas wildlife conservation. It reveals the untold story of Arkansas conservation pioneers who attempted to save the state鈥檚 game and fish populations. As Arkansas entered the 20th century, the national demand for meat 鈥� combined with the ability to ship millions of animals to hungry cities like New Orleans, Memphis and Chicago 鈥� had driven many species, including bison, prairie chickens and passenger pigeons, to extinction in Arkansas. Many others, including deer, bears, turkeys, quail and many fish species, were in danger of disappearing. Through extensive research, Foster traces how an unlikely coalition of sportsmen, conservationists and policymakers helped establish early conservation laws, fish hatcheries and wildlife refuges that laid the foundations for sustainable management practices.

Foster also presented some of his research at the AHA annual conference in a session titled 鈥淜illing for a Living: Market Hunters on Big Lake.鈥�

In addition to the Ragsdale Award, 鈥淪o Great Was the Slaughter鈥� was selected as an Arkansas Gem for 2025 by the Arkansas Center for the Book at the Arkansas State Library. Selection is based on the work鈥檚 literary or artistic merit, originality, and potential for local and regional interest. Titles with registered copyrights published within the current calendar year or the previous calendar year are considered. Arkansas Gems posters and bookmarks are introduced each year at the National Book Festival, highlighting recent regional literature to a national audience.

Foster is an accomplished historian and professor with over 25 years of experience teaching American, Southern, Military and Arkansas history at both two-year and four-year institutions across the South and Midwest. He holds a Ph.D. in 19th-century Southern History from Mississippi State University, with subfields in environmental history and the application of science and technology to the study of history. He earned both his B.A. and M.A. in History from the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. His research explores Civil War military campaigns, rural life in Arkansas, and the history of hunting and conservation. Foster鈥檚 growing body of scholarship includes 鈥淪herman鈥檚 Mississippi Campaign鈥� (2006) and an edited Civil War diary of one of Stonewall Jackson鈥檚 colonels, 鈥淔ighting with Stonewall in the Valley,鈥� scheduled for release in October 2026.
