Tiny Art Show

Every Spring and Fall, Bentonville Public Library invites its patrons to decorate and submit small canvasses to be displayed in the months of April and October. It's a wonderful time to be a part of the community in a creative way, regardless of your artistic confidence (we all have ability, just some of us lack the confidence 😉).

October 30 marks 20 years since Bentonville built its first structure for their Public Library and two years since the opening of the expansion. We're calling on our patrons to submit art on the theme "Library Memories" to commemorate these events.

Public Libraries are a cornerstone of modern civilization, and we all likely have some memories  that remind us how important Public Libraries are to us, our families, and our community. But school libraries, personal libraries, and all the other book collections we encounter can hold just as much importance--not to mention magic--as the one we can all enter. 

Join us in celebrating Bentonville Public Library's anniversary of being at 405 S. Main Street and all the libraries we've encountered as a community. 

We can't wait to see what Library Memories your artwork reveals!

Registration is limited and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Once you've registered, please visit the Library Children's Service Desk to retrieve your canvas as soon as possible.

PLEASE NOTE: Once you've completed the form, you will be notified by email that your canvas is ready to be picked up or that you have been placed on the waiting list.
