The Springdale Art Initiative was formally founded in May of 2014 with the goal of bringing more public art into the city of Springdale, Arkansas.
As the Northwest Arkansas Region continues to expand, so do the opportunities for public art. We are excited to bring an entirely new level of awareness of art in public spaces that will give all of us just one more reason to invest in our beloved town. Below is a list of our completed and current projects. Please email us at [email protected] with any partnership ideas, suggestions or questions.
