The Arts & Science Center will host the exhibition “Arkansas Women to Watch 2023: New Worlds” from Thursday, May 19, to Aug. 12, 2023, at ASC’s home facility at, 701 S. Main St. in Pine Bluff.

“New Worlds” is the latest exhibit in the Women to Watch exhibition series, conceived by the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA). The Arkansas Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts (ACNMWA) organizes the statewide tour of the art by the Arkansas nominees.

The exhibition’s guest curator is Chaney Jewell, former curator of collections and exhibitions at ASC. She nominated four Arkansas artists whose work embodies the “new worlds” theme of “migration or stagnation of an individual, environmental changes, physical or emotional growth of an individual and imaginary worlds”: Heidi Carlsen-Rogers, Anaïs Dassé, Hannah McBroom and Aimée Papazian.

Relyance Bank is the sponsor of the ASC presentation of the exhibition.
