In conjunction with the Arkansas Arts Center 50th Anniversary celebration, a new exhibit has just been installed.

The Museum School Faculty Exhibition: Past and Present pays tribute to the Museum School faculty. The Arkansas Arts Center first began offering art classes for children and adults during the spring of 1960, prior to the construction of the new facility.

When the new Arts Center was completed in May of 1963, it included studios that comprise the Museum School in which a full schedule of art classes was offered.

The Museum School Faculty Exhibition: Past and Present highlights work created by current Museum School Faculty along with work from the permanent collection by former faculty members. Works in a variety of media are featured. This exhibition is the final installment in the series.

The exhibit runs through March 10.

The Arkansas Arts Center galleries are open:

Tuesday – Saturday 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Sunday 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.
