Explore Local Artistry During Crystal Bridges's Pintura Fest Public Art Pop-Up

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

Opening today, Apr 17, in five venues across Northwest Arkansas, the Pintura Fest Public Art Pop-Up will feature large-scale paintings created by local artists last month during Crystal Bridges' Pintura Fest.

  • Art Fiesta: On Mar 18, Pintura Fest was a community fiesta celebrating the opening of Crystal Bridges' new exhibition Diego Rivera's America. Six regional artists, art teachers, and students from 10 schools created 17 large-scale paintings in front of a live audience.
  • In The Community: Art pop-ups will be displayed at The Jones Center, Rogers Experimental House, Rogers City Hall, Fayetteville Public Library, and Siloam Springs Public Library. At each site, visitors are encouraged to pick up a free art kit that includes at-home projects, a community guide, and an exhibition admission voucher for Diego Rivera's America at Crystal Bridges.
