What is the Argenta Arts District 3rd Friday Art Walk?
Argenta, which covers Main Street in downtown North Little Rock and the surrounding blocks, is home to an incredible breadth of art, culture, food, and history. This area is Arkansas’s most vibrant Art District. Just across the river from Little Rock’s River Market, the entire Argenta community hosts an after-hours art night every third Friday of the month. Participating businesses include the Argenta Gallery, ACANSA Gallery, The Argenta Library, the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, and many more.
Be sure to stop at the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, where we offer an opportunity to chat with our Featured Gallery Artists in person. Additionally, we showcase local artisans and makers by providing free booths inside the spacious Hub to display their artisan crafts and talents. Visitors can find a wide variety of one-of-a-kind gifts and creations from rotating local makers. From handcrafted jewelry to custom woodwork, our indoor market celebrates the diverse skills of our local artisans.
Pick up an Argenta Arts District Passport inside your first Art Walk stop. Use the Passport QR code to see participating venues and their locations. Collect stamps in your Passport at each stop as you traverse the neighborhood. Submit it to the staff at your final stop to be entered in the monthly drawing for $25 gift cards to local shops and restaurants!
Street-side parking is free in downtown North Little Rock/Argenta. Free and paid parking lots are also available to the public. The Innovation Hub is conveniently located between Parking Lots 8, 9, and 10, making it the perfect first stop!
The 3rd Friday Art Walk is a GREAT opportunity to browse the works on display, connect with talented artists, shop with local artisan vendors, and mingle with the North Little Rock community. Many venues will welcome you with beverages and snacks and the Hub offers family-friendly activities.

What People Are Saying
“The Innovation Hub in Argenta is a really incredible place. The staff there are very knowledgeable about entrepreneurship, making, and innovating; it is a place that is inclusive for all ages interested in the maker movement.”
“I can’t recommend this place highly enough! A makerspace, a coworking space, an art gallery, and an inspiration. I’m excited about starting my class in a couple of weeks. Just stop by, everyone is friendly and would love to tell you more. You kind of have to see it to believe it. It’s that good.”
“A jewel in the crown of North Little Rock! This huge facility is equipped with all sorts of tools and technology, as well as classes on various types of art endeavours.”
“My first-ever-market event was at the Innovation Hub a few years back. One of my first original paintings I ever sold was to somebody who was visiting the Innovation Hub at the time, and that lady told me ‘One day, you are going to be big, so I am going to purchase one of your paintings now.’ I will never forget that moment as she was an important contact I made at the Hub. The Hub is a great place to learn and grow. Many members of the staff have also supported my work, and I can tell you that the Innovation Hub is community.” themokassoexperience.com
