Fort Smith Art Center

The Fort Smith Art Center is located in the Vaughn-Schaap house, one of the few remaining examples of Victorian Second Empire architecture in Fort Smith. It was the first home to be restored in the Belle  Grove Historic District and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Each month the Fort Smith Art Center showcases work in  a variety of media by regional and nationally recognized artists. Annual photography and art competitions feature artwork by artists from across the country. The Art Center also has a permanent collection of contemporary  regional art which is exhibited on a rotating basis.
