Program Description

Fort Smith, the CB to You Mobile Art Lab is coming back to our neighborhood!

Join us at our Welcome Celebration as Crystal Bridges kicks off their visit to the Fort Smith area! Partner artist and local educator Lynette Thrower will be at the Main Library from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. leading a poetry-inspired painting art activity. Each guest will take home their own acrylic on canvas artwork. You’ll get to meet Lynette and learn about her art practice, as well as her experiences with community, belonging, and resilience. Guests can also check out an art tote packed with creative supplies, meet with artist and tote designer Tram Colwin, and enjoy live music presented by Music Moves.

Music Moves develops curriculum, programs, and performances to share the stories of these individuals and their influence on American culture. Their mission is to make Black music accessible to students and to our communities through performance and education.

Free, no tickets required. Drop by anytime from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
