In 4th Grade We Learn That Differences Make Us Unique.
S.M.A.R.T. Believers
Community Is Connection
S.M.A.R.T. believes that creative exercises benefit us as a community. We host monthly creative activities, ranging from cyanotype to collage. Our resident artists coordinate bi-monthly free workshops intended to bring us together and expand our minds.
Art Is For Every Body
Second Saturday Artwalk, founded in 1996 by S.M.A.R.T. Executive Director Andy Benavides, is a family friendly monthly event in Southtown. The art walk has grown from serving 1,000 people to over 8,000 people annually. Each month S.M.A.R.T.'s 14 art studios open for the evening, creating a night full of art, music, food, fashion and community.
S.M.A.R.T. Market Creates Opportunity
A vital component of our Art walk, the S.M.A.R.T. Market provides a platform for 12 local artisans and 1 guest to share and sell their work every Second Saturday. Vendor fees are invested back into S.M.A.R.T. programming to fund art scholarships. Click here to apply.
