1. Drop In and Draw

Take advantage of the Fort Smith Regional Art Museum space for this week's Drop-In and Draw event. The location is 1601 Rogers Ave., weekly from 1-3 PM on Thursdays. Bring your own materials and enjoy a free studio space, easels, and live model on the house! Click here for more information!

2. Ladies Night Axe Throwing

Not so much for the kiddos, but Thursday Ladies' Nights at Civil Axe Throwing are great times to connect the kids with their favorite babysitter, so you and the girls can unwind and get out a little targeted aggression. It only costs $15 per hour, and you can go any time from 5:30-11:30 PM. Click here for more information! 

3. Second Saturday Shopping in Downtown Van Buren

This is a big week for our next door neighbors in Van Buren. With the ribbon cutting and official unveiling of Arts On Main, downtown life is sure to pick up even more than it already has. With Second Saturday Shopping on March 12, you can take advantage of all the strip has to offer with great shopping, food choices, and fun. Click here for more information!

All month long, you can drop by the Windsor Branch of the Fort Smith Public Library for this fun Women's History Month Activity. It includes “Unscramble the Famous Faces of Women’s History,” a fun coloring activity from Art with Jenny K. You can click here for more information.
