Keith Haring in 3D is the first exhibition to highlight Keith Haring’s work in three dimensions, inviting visitors to move through, around, and within his art like never before. In the course of his short life, Keith Haring transmitted across a dizzying range of creative channels: painting, sculpture, installation, video, murals, performance, printmaking, early digital art, and more. While Haring helped define the look and mood of the 1980s, he also saw clearly a future that has become our present.

Haring is typically thought of as primarily a two-dimensional artist, but Keith Haring in 3D focuses on a lesser-known and highly compelling aspect of Haring’s practice as a sculptor. He created hundreds of three-dimensional artworks, beginning with painting objects he found in the street. Eventually, Haring made monumental sculptures in wood and metal, and even a whole store for his art.

Haring was, above all, a master of line, with an instinctive ability to compose on multiple scales. Haring’s work in three dimensions has never been the focus of a major exhibition and has rarely been shown. Keith Haring in 3D will fill this gap in public understanding by showcasing a wide range of Haring’s works, including sculpture, totems and masks, skateboards, clothing, boomboxes, paintings, drawings, and even a 1963 Buick Special. The exhibition will be accompanied by a major book published by Phaidon/Monacelli.

The Rogers Historical Museum presents the upcoming temporary exhibit, “Ozark Tourism: Land of a Million Smiles.” The exhibit will be on display in the Trammel Gallery from April 25, 2026-April 1, 2028.

People have been drawn to the natural beauty and recreational wonders that Northwest Arkansas has to offer for over a century. From the natural springs and rivers to historic sites and museums, tourism has become one of the region’s leading industries.

This exhibit shares the history of tourism in the Ozarks of Northwest Arkansas, exploring everything from places promoting fresh, healing spring waters, such as the resort towns of Monte Ne and Bella Vista, to modern recreational pastimes that make tourism a billion-dollar industry in the state.

British artist Lucy Sparrow is internationally renowned for her unique and immersive installations filled with thousands of items, all meticulously handcrafted from felt. Through her work, Sparrow transforms everyday retail environments into playful, nostalgic, and tactile worlds that are both familiar and entirely new. Lucy Sparrow: The Beginning of Convenience, Sparrow’s first museum exhibition in the United States, will take visitors back in time through an immersive “time capsule” installation of a 1980s-90s Walmart-inspired supermarket.

Expanding on her extensive archival research practice, The Beginning of Convenience includes more than 20,000 individually hand-crafted and exquisitely detailed felt replicas of supermarket products, ranging from food and beverage items to beauty products and household goods typical of a not-so-distant past. Throughout the exhibition, Sparrow will explore a particular moment in history that she refers to as the “beginning of convenience,” a time when the rise of dual-income households in the 1980s necessitated consumer goods that prioritized speed and convenience over effort and taste. Changing roles within the household led to the development and proliferation of quick and easy consumer goods, such as microwave dinners, frozen foods, and out-of-the-box meals.

In addition to the supermarket experience, The Beginning of Convenience will feature a built replica of Sparrow’s studio – known as the Felt Cave – and a new self-made documentary that follows Sparrow’s work in the months leading up to the exhibition at the Momentary.

Chuck Ramirez (1962-2010) was a San Antonio-based artist with a reverence for material culture. For many years, his day job was as a graphic designer and art director for the Texas grocery chain H-E-B. In his commercial work, he helped sell products that lined store shelves and filled home pantries. Ramirez’s photographs will prompt viewers to consider that the goods people buy, consume, discard, or treasure are more than just things; they are evidence of life. In the photographs, the artist positioned material culture as reflections of humanity, community, memory, and loss.

In his artwork, Ramirez often recast commercial products as windows onto the people who consumed them. Ramirez’s affinity for everyday “stuff” was a continuous thread throughout his practice. The artist’s ability to find wonder in the ordinary takes center stage in this exhibition.

Free, no tickets required.

Participants will join Jonathan Jeffrey, a Crystal Bridges tour leader, for an in-depth look at Anna Mary Robertson “Grandma” Moses (1860–1961), one of America’s most beloved folk artists. Known for her evocative rural scenes, Moses produced more than 1,000 works and challenged mid-century art world expectations. Prompted by the upcoming retrospective Grandma Moses: A Good Day’s Work, curated by the Smithsonian American Art Museum and scheduled for exhibition at Crystal Bridges in Fall 2026, this course examines Moses’ life, artistic techniques, disciplined approach to painting, and the marketing and reception of her work. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of Moses’ legacy in both folk art and American culture. An optional tour of the exhibition at Crystal Bridges on 10/16/26 will be discussed during the lecture session. Participants will drive themselves and pay admission fee on their own if attending.

Every great community is full of stories waiting to be told--but finding them, shaping them, and making them land with an audience is a craft.

Participants discover the craft of storytelling in this hands-on session led by KUAF General Manager Clint Schaff and colleague, Jack Travis. Drawing from decades of experience, they introduce the essential elements of compelling narrative, from identifying meaningful characters and moments to structuring stories for maximum impact. The session also explores the unique qualities of spoken storytelling—across radio, podcasts, and live presentations—emphasizing its intimacy and connection with audiences.

Participants leave with practical tools they can apply to personal projects such as family histories, oral storytelling, or community work. No prior experience is required—only an interest in sharing meaningful stories.
