About this Playground
Tours start at the Dyess Colony Visitor Center, located at 110 Center Drive, Dyess. It includes a gift shop, orientation video, and exhibits. From the Colony Circle, visitors are shuttled to the Johnny Cash Boyhood Home. The Dyess Colony was created in 1934 as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal to aid in the nation’s economic recovery from the Great Depression. As a federal agricultural resettlement community, it provided a fresh start for nearly 500 impoverished Arkansas farm families, including the family of music legend Johnny Cash. The colony has been resurrected through the restoration of several historic buildings open to visitors.
