Downtown Springdale Hosts the Second ART WALK of 2022 on Saturday June 11
Springdale, AR – Downtown Springdale hosts the second in its series of free ART WALKs on Saturday, June 11 from 2-7PM. Galleries, museums, businesses, makers’ spaces, and boutiques will open their doors for exhibitions and entertainment. Many of the creatives work inside the Outdoor Dining District making it easy for event goers to enjoy food and drink while they take in the art.
The ART WALK series that is free to the public is made possible thanks to the presenting sponsor Baldwin & Shell and supporting sponsor the Tyson Family Foundation.
Art lovers can enjoy an afternoon stroll through downtown Springdale during this free, self-guided tour featuring a variety of creatives. Event goers can pick up an ART WALK map the day of the event at R McClintock Fine Woodworking Shoppe located at 105 Spring Street. The map also serves as a passport, and event goers who visit each stop on the map are eligible for two free tickets to Street Dinner that night, compliments of the Downtown Springdale Alliance. Passports should be returned to the Downtown Springdale Alliance table in Turnbow Park by 6:30PM.
