Now in its third year, Inverse Performance Art takes over Northwest Arkansas with a dizzying array of performances from local, national and international artists. 

When founder Cynthia Post Hunt stopped by to discuss this year's events we learned that Inverse owes a lot to a giant edible cupcake Post Hunt created for her first performance. 

"Telling people to go to look at my art was not enough," says Post Hunt, about her drive behind latching on to performance art after years in photography. "I really wanted to be present for that moment of realization that the audience member could have- I really just enjoyed being live with the person."
