More about the new show

Last week we announced that we’re adding the Pinnacle Hills Fine Art Festival in Rogers Arkansas, September 9-11, to our fall tour. We are a little nervous taking on the challenge of bringing a festival together in just 3 months. However, it’s not the first time for this event. For the past 4 years Pinnacle Hills Promenade has been home to the Pinnacle Hills Art & Food Festival. Until now this festival was produced by another organization. Pinnacle Hills Promenade wants to continue having an annual fall art event and building the success of this weekend show, which is growing steadily. Pinnacle Hills Promenade is owned by General Growth Properties, which also owns and manages the The Shops At La Cantera. This is the finest retail location in Northwest Arkansas. Rogers Arkansas is the home of the Waltons – Walmart and Sam’s Club, and has a unique population of people from all over the country. The festival takes place during the Women’s PGA golf tournament which is at the Pinnacle Hills Country Club just across the road. The past festivals have been successful, drawing approximately 40,000 people during the event weekend.

This 3-day art festival features fine arts and fine crafts, a music stage with regional entertainment and the Living it Green Expo, which features exhibitors promoting healthy lifestyles and eco-friendly products and services. We will maintain this area this first year but will make sure it does not impede the artist booth areas.

If your schedule has an opening for September 9-11, 2011 and you would like to be a part of our newest show, please apply. For this first year, any artist who has shown with Lynette either in Bayou City Art Festivals, The Woodlands Waterway Art Festival, Georgetown Art in the Square or The Shops At La Cantera Art Festival will be marked as invited in the jury process. Artists can apply on Zapp starting June 10. Application deadline July 15, 2011 on www.zapplication.org.

Pinnacle Hills

We have some really exciting news. Lynette Wallace Productions is proud to announce the addition of the Pinnacle Hills Promenade Arts and Food Festival to our fall line-up of shows. The Pinnacle Hills Promenade mall is in Rogers, Arkansas. This is a luxury shopping venue in northwest Arkansas. It’s in a strategic location that attracts traffic from northwest Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri. We’re honored to be taking over this show, which will be in its 5th year. It’s a 3-day event with fine arts and fine crafts. There will also be music, food and the Living it Green Expo, which features exhibitors promoting healthy lifestyles and eco-friendly products and services.

This is going to be a fantastic show. The mall is directly adjacent to the Pinnacle Country Club, where the LPGA Women’s Golf Championship Tour takes place the same weekend. The Tour is estimated to attract 25,000 fans, and the mall will provide overflow shuttle parking.

We’re very excited about this fantastic new addition to our fall line-up of shows. For more information visit our website.
