Create Conway

Connection, collaboration, and community were at the heart of the Women’s Leadership Networking Event. The Create Conway Board showed up and showed out strong! On the scene were Jessica Crum with Silverlake Studios, Charles Frost with D&C Events, and Jennifer Mouser hosting the whole shebang! Our dearest friends at our headquarters in The Studio Downtown were also present with Selena Ulasewich.

Thank you everyone who stopped by and for the WLN Arkansas for bringing us all together. We’re already looking forward to the next opportunity to connect and grow together.

There’s something powerful about coming together to build something bigger than any one of us. This mural was designed by Lindsey Witting, a Conway-based illustrator and graphic artist who earned her fine arts degree from our very own University of Central Arkansas. Lindsey brought our community together this past Art Walk by engaging attendees with an immersive paint-by-numbers experience and y’all did not shy away from the challenge! The Create Conway team is proud to pick up the baton and finish what you’ve started.
So grateful for the team at Create Conway and everyone who showed up, contributed, and made space for creativity to thrive in our community. This is what it looks like when art connects us: art by the public, for the public!
Come out to the June 5 Art Walk to continue to Create this summer!
