It鈥檚 an amazing medium, because it can be anything the artist wants it to be.鈥�Both events are free for Arkansas Arts Center members and $10 for nonmembers. They are part of a month-long series of Art After Hours lectures on Adams, which promotes the center鈥檚 exhibition, 鈥淎nsel Adams: Early Works.鈥�
