Dear NWA Community,
As we approach the end of the year and look forward to 2024, we have so much gratitude for all the opportunities we had in 2023 to co-create, share, and hold space with and for one another. Thank you!
CACHE Studios has been a multifunctional third space for creatives, performers, and neighbors alike, and the venue served as a dynamic setting for countless cultural and arts events. CACHE’s role as manager and programmer of the building will discontinue on December 21st, 2023. While there were a number of factors that influenced the decision to conclude our era at CACHE Studios, this move will give us the additional capacity to serve more artists and arts organizations across the region.
CACHE Studios was conceptualized as an experiment to demonstrate the infinite possibilities that artists and organizations can realize in Bentonville, and the past three years did exactly that, tapping more Northwest Arkansans into homegrown inspiration and goodness:
-
Studio space for 33 artists
-
Rehearsal room and performance space for movement organizations like NWA Ballet Theatre, NWA Movement Hub, and Walton Arts Center
-
Versatile underground music scene showcase
Thank you again to the artists, movers, performers, and community for making CACHE Studios our own. Your collective enthusiasm built an unforgettable space where collaborative spirit and creative incubation occurred many times over. Local creatives expanded their personal and professional networks, showed work for the first time, and provided opportunities for the community to participate in artistic classes.
Let’s continue to embody the community spirit that transformed an old warehouse into what CACHE Studios became, as we celebrate what’s to come for us all and all we are becoming!
With gratitude,
The CACHE team
