A Hospitable Event with a Giving Heart:
Art on the Border is more than just an art show; it's a community gathering. We're committed to creating a welcoming and hospitable atmosphere for all attendees. Enjoy friendly faces as you explore the art. And the best part? A portion of the proceeds from Art on the Border will be donated to the local beneficiaries making your shopping experience even more meaningful.
​
Art on the Border grew from 14 artists in 2014 to 90 in 2024.
The Classic Charitable Foundation has presented community benefit events since 1995.
Since 2014 Art on the Border has raised $344,400 in support of nonprofit organizations in the Fort Smith area. We are proud to support this year beneficiaries! Learn more about them on our beneficiaries page.​​
