About Art Ventures NW Arkansas

Vision: Art for Everyone improves quality of life. We envision inclusive communities characterized by mutual understanding and respect and communication across cultures through art. Mission: Art Ventures promotes the visual arts in Northwest Arkansas by actively collaborating with the community, supporting artists working to the highest standards, encouraging education and public engagement in the arts, and providing accessibility to under-represented communities. Values: Quality of life is greatly improved through exposure to art. The universal language of art facilitates learning and cross-cultural communication. Individuals and communities participate in creative learning practices when they can identify culturally. Opportunities for cultural micro-communities to share their stories serve to enrich our entire population, send a direct message of inclusiveness, and encourage education and public engagement across diverse communities. Developing young artists adds value to the community. Supporting and educating artists and providing exposure for their work allows them to work to the highest standards.
