EUREKA SPRINGS SCHOOL OF THE ARTS
In the belief that art is vital to the human spirit, the Eureka Springs School of the Arts commits itself to cultivating, promoting, and encouraging artistic expression by providing art and fine craft education opportunities for students of all levels in a unique environment of beauty and creativity.
While we put the finishing touches on the print edition, the digital Spring and Summer 2026 ESSA Catalog is ready to explore. Viewing the catalog online lets you browse classes and workshops right away while helping reduce paper use.
This winter, ESSA is offering a special series of Saturday workshops at the Eureka Springs Community Center. Park easily, step inside, and spend the day immersed in making, learning, and creative focus without winter travel worries.
When ESSA began in 1998, we were a school without walls, with passionate local artists offering up their studios to support workshops. A few years later, ESSA moved into a small campus with one building and an acre of land. Today, ESSA has grown into a 55-acre campus with seven teaching studios located in the beautiful Ozark Mountains of Northwest Arkansas.
