Visiting Artists, Designers, and Scholars

About the Visiting Lecture Series

The School of Art is dedicated to bringing in renowned artists, designers, and scholars to the University of Arkansas. Their lectures and workshops provide faculty, students and the community comprehensive experiences in the practice and study of fine arts and design.

These programs are made possible through the generous support of the Walton Family Charitable Support Foundation and the Joy Pratt Markham Visiting Lecture Endowment. These lectures would not be possible without their contributions.
