Hot Springs Area Cultural Alliance (HSACA), the City of Hot Springs Art Advisory Committee (AAC) and Hot Springs Parks and Trails (HSP&T) are collectively producing Art Moves Hot Springs, an art exhibit of paintings, drawings, and photographs displayed along the Hot Springs Creek Greenway Trail. The exhibit combines art, nature, and exercise to encourage healthy habits for the community.
The artwork should show the artist’s interpretation of movement. Physical body movement while exercising, dancing, hiking, or biking is a possible definition. The artwork can refer to environmental or natural movements such as the flow of water over rocks, stormy clouds, or falling leaves. Social movements such as political activism, a parade, or a community gathering could be another depiction.
From the entries, a panel of jurors will select ten artworks to be in the Art Moves Hot Springs exhibit. The selected artwork will be reproduced on metal signs that will be displayed along the Hot Springs Greenway Trail. Area galleries will display the framed original artworks during Arts & The Park celebration.
