The Square comes alive with live art demonstrations, interactive projects, and displays featuring every medium you can imagine, from paintings and sketches to mixed media and more. This celebration of Northwest Arkansas’s artistic talent offers something for everyone. Stroll through the art walk and market to discover work from local artists and vendors, watch artists create live, or jump into hands-on activities perfect for all ages.

The event creates a space where connection happens naturally. You can meet the artists behind the work, connect with other creatives, attend seminars, and get inspired by the talent that calls Bentonville home. 

There will be food trucks stationed around the Square to keep you energized. Live music adds to the atmosphere, making this less of a traditional art walk and more of an artistic celebration.
