THE WORLD IN WHICH IMPRESSIONISM GREW:
Impressionism is an expression of the world at a
particular moment in time. This workshop not only
explored the science of color theory and the lives of
the artists, but also the historical context in which
artists looked at the world through dashes of
pigment. Teachers learned how to blend history,
science and art-making practices of the day through
hands-on experiences. Connections to Arkansas
Department of Education Standards in the Visual
Arts, Fine Arts, Art History, World History, Language
Arts and Science, and key connections to Core
Curriculum Standards.

LIBRARY
The Elizabeth Prewitt Taylor Memorial Library
continued to add materials to the collection, through
purchases, donations and exchanges with other
museums. These materials were catalogued into the
online catalog to provide access for patrons of the
CALS system. The library continues to attract users
from the main CALS library through the online
catalog.
The library’s collection of artist catalogs was weeded
so that only materials pertaining to artists in the Arts
Center’s permanent collection were retained.
Materials that were no longer needed were donated
to local art teachers.
The library has expanded its collection of
instructional DVDs. These materials are used by the
Curator of Education and the Arkansas Arts Center
staff.

Docents conduct gallery tours of the Arts Center’s
permanent collection and special exhibitions. They
introduce students to the richness and diversity of
the visual arts. Through their tours they stimulate
creativity, critical thinking and judgment skills in

The Arkansas Arts Center presented Studio Party:
Jazzkapelle on March 31, 2012, at the Arts Center.
The party’s “Roaring 20s” theme was inspired by a
1921 Max Beckmann drawing from the Arts Center’s
permanent collection titled Jazzkapelle, which, in
German, means jazz band. The atrium was
converted into a speakeasy atmosphere, where
guests danced the night away to the sounds of Liquid
Pleasure from Atlanta. Proceeds from the event will
be used for exhibition and educational programs.

The Rockefeller Memorial Award is presented each year to honor those who serve and support the arts
and the Arkansas Arts Center beyond the normal call of duty, a duty so well demonstrated by the late
Winthrop Rockefeller for whom the award is named. The awardees are selected by a committee of past
recipients, who are by definition the experts in public service through the arts.
