The Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts (AMFA) is set to welcome award-winning artists Theaster Gates and Nari Ward to the museum for Undivided on Thursday,November 7, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. in the Performing Arts Theater. Tickets to this once-in-a-lifetime event are free to the public with registration recommended on arkmfa.org.

AMFA’s annual Undivided series redefines the traditional conventions of an artist talk by pairing contemporary artists together to interview each other, offering audiences a look into the minds of working artists and the ideas that fuel their practices.

Both Gates and Ward see art as a tool for social change, using discarded and repurposed objects in innovative ways to confront issues ranging from value to spiritualism.
