In the first Saturday of each month, Best Friends Animal Society is bringing fun with furry friends to The Momentary! As part of The Momentary’s new Community Meetups series launching this March, the first “Dog Days with Best Friends” event will give members of the community the chance to spend time with adorable, adoptable dogs from the Best Friends Pet Resource Center in Bentonville.
This special meetup invites everyone—from those currently fostering a dog through Best Friends, to proud adopters, potential adopters, and anyone who simply enjoys spending time with adorable pups. This will be a warm, relaxed gathering where pet lovers can connect, share stories, sip coffee, and enjoy some canine company in a friendly community space. Free coffee will be provided by Third Space from 9 a.m. - 10 a.m.
For everyone’s comfort and safety, all dogs are asked to remain on leashes while mingling.

"""Becoming,"" the second exhibition in its 2026 art series ""Sanctuary: Finding Refuge, Building Community."" The exhibition features the work of Mary Springer, Robbin Robertson, and Megan Kirk—three artists whose diverse practices explore transformation, identity, and the unfolding of authenticity that happens when we feel safe enough to change.""Becoming"" examines sanctuary not as a static place of arrival, but as a dynamic space of metamorphosis. The exhibition asks: What happens when we find refuge? How do we grow, heal, and discover who we're meant to be when we're finally free to transform?FEATURED ARTISTS:Mary Springer brings four decades of artistic evolution to this exploration. A Memphis College of Art graduate (BFA, 1974) who studied with Philip Pearlstein and pursued self-guided studies in Italy and France, Springer's career spans roles as Design Artist for the City of Memphis, appointee to the Arkansas Arts Council under Governor Bill Clinton, and co-founder of Eureka Springs' beloved White Street Walk. Her work has been exhibited from the University of Arkansas to private collections including that of Helen Walton, and is held in the permanent collection of the Museum of Eureka Springs Art. Springer's journey—from gallery owner of WilloSpring Gallery of Fine Art to establishing Mary Springer Fine Art in 2014—embodies the exhibition's theme of continuous becoming.Robbin Robertson, a Texas A&M graduate and fourth-generation folk artist, creates colorful, whimsical multi-media works spanning canvas, wooden and metal collages, and photography. Her vibrant folk art style draws inspiration from travels across Europe, Latin America, South America, Asia, Hawaii, and the Caribbean. Robertson's work, currently represented by galleries from St. Thomas to Corpus Christi, reflects a life spent in constant creative exploration—carrying forward a family legacy while forging her own distinctive vision. Her art celebrates the joy found in transformation and cultural exchange.Megan Kirk has spent 20 years capturing the essence of Eureka Springs through her lens, documenting the town's evolving identity through yard art, parades, street art, local characters, springs, and her powerful ""Signs & Civil Rights"" collection. What began as a pandemic project five years ago has blossomed into a remarkable body of work, with over 1,000 prints sold and exhibitions in galleries throughout downtown Eureka Springs. Kirk's photography chronicles both personal and communal becoming—the ways a community grows, changes, and finds its voice over time."
