Our Mission is to sponsor, encourage, assist and promote enjoyment and understanding of the Visual Arts in Northwest Arkansas.
Celebrating the Art and Artists of Northwest Arkansas
Northwest Arkansas is rich in artistic talent and we’re proud to have so many amazing artists from diverse backgrounds and occupations from this area as part of the ANA community. We offer a welcoming and inclusive place for artists of all kinds to showcase their work, learn new skills, and be part of the growing art scene in Northwest Arkansas and the surrounding area.
We are proud to present our new face to Northwest Arkansas. We have a new home and we are finding more ways to participate in the arts in the area. Watch for new events and opportunities coming up in the months ahead.

Blooming Art Show was a one night event, new to the ANA Gallery and a resounding success. The Garden Club of Rogers is hosting a NGC Small Standard Flower Show interpreting the art of members of the ANA Gallery in Rogers, AR. The event was judged by several visiting judges and open to the members of the National Garden Clubs, South Central Region of Garden Clubs, Arkansas Federation of Garden Clubs, and Northwest District Garden Clubs. Judging was done on the day of the event and multiple awards were presented during the Blooming Art Show/Reception.
The Garden Club of Rogers selected four (4) artworks from the ANA Gallery Group’s Spring Sparkle Exhibit to be included in the competition. Members will create several amazing floral arrangements for each of the selected artworks and they will be displayed with the artworks throughout the gallery. Each of the Gallery Group artists also created an original 6×6 canvas to be included in the event.
