For supporters of the arts in Arkansas, the news in September was welcomed and celebrated. Minneapolis-based Artspace Projects announced that it has partnered with the Windgate Foundation to build a mixed-use project for the arts in Little Rock's emerging East Village. The neighborhood also will be home to the state's first dental and veterinary schools, which are being developed by Lyon College.
The Artspace Windgate Campus is envisioned as a 94,000-SF, four-story building with 60 residential units for artists and their families, along with studios, gallery and event space, and a large outdoor courtyard.
Minneapolis-based Artspace Projects on Tuesday announced a plan to build a $36 million mixed-use space for artists to live, create and display their work in east Little Rock.
Officials say work on the mixed-use project is anticipated to start in summer 2023, and they hope it will be completed in fall 2024.
The city's offer of financial assistance could strengthen local applications for housing credits.
