Conway Alliance for the Arts

Conway Alliance for the Arts CAFTA promotes local artistic endeavors and connects the community as a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit.

CAFTA is run by an all-volunteer board and relies on community volunteers, local business sponsors, and city partners to help carry out our mission. The board believes in the power of art to cultivate awareness, create mutual understanding, and build vibrancy in our community. We want people who attend one of our events, exhibits, or workshops to walk away knowing Conway is a city where the arts are celebrated, valued, and prioritized.
