Hot Springs Gallery Walk & Art Galleries

If you are visiting Hot Springs and you are an art lover you are in luck! Hot Springs is home to a large number of unique art galleries featuring wood carvings, art glass, pottery, jewelry, oil and watercolor paintings and more by local and nationally recognized artists. The Hot Springs Gallery Walk is on the first Friday of every month.  See the The Hot Springs Area Cultural Alliance website for participating galleries.  Some galleries feature one of their artists by prominently displaying their art and their accomplishments. Often refreshments are also served. Many of the artists are available during this time and often galleries feature brand new exhibits.  Below is a list of art studios and galleries in Hot Springs.

The Artist's Workshop Gallery is a 35+ member co-op of very talented local and area artists of all styles, types of painting and mediums.

Day-to-day activities are managed by the artists themselves as they share in staffing the gallery. Members set their own prices and all paintings are reasonably priced. This concept is great for the artists and for art buyers as the middle man is cut out. Each month two artists are featured during Gallery Walk, as well as the rest of the month.
