Chic Art Gallery Opening

New York City has come to Little Rock! Greg Thompson Fine Art has officially opened its doors to the public. In a beautiful historic building in Argenta, this new gallery uses discriminating taste to choose only the best local artists to adorn the walls. Along with local and regional artists, we also are the only gallery in the area to carry nationally and internationally known artists. Come to the gallery and on any given day you may see the work of Pablo Picasso (on exhibition now), Salvador Dali, and many more.

The inaugural exhibition contains the work of prominent Arkansas artists along with a few important southern regionalists. Here are a few photos from the evening:
