BRIDGES TO MODERNITY AND BEYOND
`
The Argenta Arts District is set in the historic heart of downtown North Little Rock. The district is filled with art galleries, artist studios, an art foundation, a community theater, chef-driven restaurants, a farmers market and neighborhood grocery, eclectic shopping, pocket parks and more to relax and rejuvenate.
Experience the best of what the Argenta Arts District has to offer every 3rd Friday night during Argenta Art Walk. Visit the arts and craft booths, local, regional and world class art galleries, and enjoy delicious food from masters of the culinary arts in the Arts District’s fine restaurants.
Commitment to the visual, performance, landscape, culinary and healing arts is evident throughout. Within several easily walkable blocks you’ll find a children’s gallery, hanging floral baskets, fresh baked breads, pastries, vintage and antique shopping. The Argenta Arts District has easy access from all downtown hotels by foot or trolley and has become a premier dining and arts destination.
Stroll down the historic streets turned art galleries to find "Art In Unexpected Places" and meet some of Arkansas' finest local artists, painters, sculptors, photographers, potters, musicians, and jewelry-makers, just to name a few. Visit Argenta's businesses, restaurants, and working art studios. Shop, dine, and stay awhile.
