The Sheid

The Sheid is a multi-purpose event venue on the Arkansas State University-Mountain Home campus in Mountain Home, Arkansas. Its range of indoor and outdoor spaces can be hired for conferences, conventions, trade shows, meetings, performances, weddings, receptions and private celebrations.

The venue includes the Ed Coulter Performing Arts Center, with a large auditorium, stage and backstage facilities, and the McClure Convention Center, which can be divided into separate rooms. Smaller conference and meeting rooms are available for board sessions, workshops and breakout groups. The First Security Amphitheatre offers an outdoor setting for ceremonies and gatherings, while the Trout Center provides another option for dinners and receptions. Spaces can be booked individually or together, with layouts suited to different group sizes and event formats.

For wedding ceremonies and receptions, couples can consider both indoor rooms and the outdoor amphitheatre. The Sheid also hosts corporate functions, conventions and other public or private events. Depending on the space and booking, event organisers can request equipment and technical support, including sound, lighting and audiovisual facilities. Tables, chairs, staging and other set-up options are available, and the venue has on-site parking and internet access. Catering is arranged separately by the organiser, with a preparation kitchen available for caterers.

Event planners can submit a rental request with the event date, expected attendance, room preferences and set-up requirements. The venue team reviews requests, availability and equipment needs, helping organisers choose a suitable space for their programme.
