ACANSA Arts Festival is just around the corner, September 13th through the 28th, 2019. The 6th annual Arts Festival of the South will once again host a series of special weekend performances and events in various venues around Little Rock and North Little Rock, AR.
The annual ACANSA Arts Festival of the South has been bringing a diverse array of talent to Little Rock every September since 2014. The festival celebrates with live music, theater, workshops, symposiums, and art in all its myriad forms.
This year’s event continues the tradition with a roster that includes Latin pop sensation Gina Chavez, award-winning food historian Jessica B. Harris, contemporary dance troupe BODYTRAFFIC, and renowned jazz guitarist Bill Frisell!
As always, the festival is held in performance spaces and event centers around Little Rock and North Little Rock, AR. Tickets are available online for both individual shows or more inclusive passes. Due to seating constraints, reservations are required for many of the shows, with or without passes.
Be sure to get yours before they sell out!

Arkansas Lodging
No matter what part of Arkansas you find yourself in, you can bet that there is an Arkansas bed and breakfast nearby just waiting to share their hospitality with you. Why put up with the same old, stale, cookie-cutter approach of corporate hotels and motels when you can be treated like royalty at an Arkansas inn? Do yourself and your traveling companions a favor with accommodations at an Arkansas B&B!
