Very nice museum, with a diverse art collection and wonderful special exhibits. We live in Houston but make a point of visiting this museum when we are in Little Rock. The museum is very nicely set up so that visitor can see the art without backtracking or getting lost. The museum is also family friendly and houses a children's theatre with regular shows. Parking is easy and there is a lovely park next to the museum.

The visitors center is great place to start. There's lots to see and do at no cost or low cost . The river walk and farmers market is a must. The museams are free and very interesting. There's lots for kids too . Petting zoo and hay rides . Ballet is a must. The sub and tug boat are neat to see. I didn't know Arkansas had so much. We will celebrate again , thanks for the hospitality Ark. Loads of fun.

Love this place! I've been coming here since the 90s, and have taken a few different classes here and there. I'm always impressed with the exhibits they get and the visiting artists they have talk/do workshops. I even had a tintype portrait done here by Keily Anderson Staley that I love! Unfortunately, I will not be taking any more classes there due to their new-ish education director. She's very cold, rude, and walks around like she runs the entire art center. Some of the sweetest and nicest people I know have only been treated horribly by her, which really upsets me. I'll continue to visit and love the Art Center, but I'll definitely be avoiding the museum school because of her!
