The Natural State played host to dozens of ambassadors to the United States during what's being called "Experience Arkansas."

The group joined with local elected officials and others Monday morning for a breakfast at the Little Rock Club.

The diplomatic corps is spending several days touring and experiencing some of the best things Arkansas has to offer, from Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art to the Arkansas Repertory Theater.

"We have brought close to 50 ambassadors and their spouses to learn all about this wonderful great state and to learn it all from the most enchanting, creative and energetic people in all of the US: Arkansans," said US Chief of Protocol Capricia Penavic Marshall.

The group attended a dinner Sunday night which included remarks by President Bill Clinton and a multi-course meal featuring local produce and meats.
