The ARTx3 Campus will host an opening reception for an exhibition of work by Pine Bluff High School students from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 20, at The Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas, 701 S. Main St. The event is free and open to the public.
“It Was All A Dream” invites viewers to step into a world where imagination and reality intertwine. Presented by the talented art students of Pine Bluff High School, this exhibit celebrates the surrealist tradition of exploring dreams, the subconscious, and unexpected combinations. Each piece transforms ordinary subjects into extraordinary visions—blurring the line between what is real and what is imagined. Through their creative interpretations, these young artists invite you to question, wonder, and dream alongside them.
The exhibition will be on view in the Loft Gallery through Feb. 26, 2026. Gallery hours are by appointment. The exhibition is sponsored by Pine Bluff Sand & Gravel Co.
For more information or to schedule a viewing, contact Shakeelah Rahmaan, interim curator and programs director, at srahmaan@artx3.org or call 870-536-3375. Webpage: artx3.org/exhibitions/2025-pine-bluff-high-school
The ARTx3 Campus will host the opening reception for the exhibition “Blaque” by Jonathan Wright, from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 19, at The Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas (ASC), 701 S. Main St. The event is free, and refreshments will be available.
“Blaque” explores how a single shade can carry grief, resilience, tradition, and transformation within the African diaspora. Blending technology with traditional techniques, the artist uses matte black on black paper to prompt slow, intentional analysislooking—revealing layered histories, personal memory, and cultural legacy. The exhibition invites viewers to reflect on their own heritage while confronting how stories can fade unless we choose to see them fully.
Wright is an art instructor at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in visual arts. He completed his Master of Fine Arts in printmaking this year at Arizona State University. His love of working with his hands is what drives him to combine traditional printmaking techniques, such as woodcutting, with modern technology. His current body of work emphasizes the rich history of the African American Community, their experiences and their heritage.
