Happy Hour with the Artists

November 2024 – January 2025

First National Bank of NWA
402 SW A St.
Bentonville, AR 72712

Thursday, November 7th, the Bentonville branch of the First National Bank of NWA hosted a reception for this quarter’s exhibiting artists. Pictured left to right are Brent Umphlett, Shira Fouste, (me,) and Kathleen Siegfried. Not pictured is Jimmy Leach. Artwork by the artists now on display is not to be missed. All the artists are amazing and you may view their work during the next three months at 402 SW A St, Bentonville, AR. Each artist has works displayed in the bank’s storefront windows that may be viewed 24/7, and additional art may be seen inside the bank during working hours. Don’t miss seeing this show!

n the second photo, I’m between exhibiting artists Kathleen Siegfried and long-time friend Carol Hart. Carol is also an amazing artist and I displayed her work at the bank several years ago. We have known each other for more than 40 years. New friends, old friends, it’s good to have friends.

In the third photo, my friend and bank employee Garrett Lewis is introducing the artists. It’s great to have a pro doing that. Thanks Garrett. And, thanks to my friend Karen Robbins for taking this and many other great photo!
Thanks once again to the FNBNWA for supporting the arts and local artists.
