The Fayetteville Art Alliance

Art Ventures has fostered substantive advancements in the practices and lives of the diversity of artists we champion into the mainstream of NWA arts. Our efforts are deep, inculcating our mission and vision that art is for everyone through AV's K-12 Gallery Initiative providing programming for both the public school system and the home-schooled students through the gallery phase of art practice, the Sharon Killian Curatorial Internship in association with UA School of Art and the NWA Community College, and community collaborations to provide additional services to marginalized communities. Our talks and receptions are scheduled monthly both in our main gallery and off-site exhibition sites which include Theatre Squared, Fayetteville Public Library, Jim and Joyce Faulkner Performing Arts Center, and Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce. Art Ventures impacts the cultural arts and the ecosystem in a continuum that has inclusion and diversity at its base and we are proud of this achievement for local communities, for the NWA region, and for Arkansas.
