About The Company
Walton Arts Center and Walmart AMP are two premier venues bringing great performing artists and entertainers from around the world to Northwest Arkansas, connecting and engaging people through inspiring arts experiences. On our stages at Walton Arts Center and the Walmart AMP, audiences enjoy a diverse array of arts experiences, the likes of which are typically only found in major U.S. cities. Each season is designed to appeal to a range of audiences and their interests. We present everything from touring Broadway and top concert artists of every genre, to dance, comedy and cirque companies from around the globe – and often feature Arkansas premieres. Located in the heart of Downtown Fayetteville, Walton Arts Center (WAC) is Arkansas’ largest and busiest arts presenter. WAC opens its doors to thousands of patrons annually to experience Broadway national tours, self-produced arts programming and festivals, free classroom series performances and more. A beacon of the community, Walton Arts Center has grown significantly over the last quarter of a century and now operates three facilities – the original Walton Arts Center, the neighboring Nadine Baum Studios and the Walmart AMP ( Arkansas Music Pavilion, AMP) in Rogers. The Walmart AMP is Northwest Arkansas’ premiere outdoor concert venue, set in a vibrant commercial district just North of Fayetteville in Rogers. The AMP has been one of the top 100 amphitheaters in the nation and has produced headlining concerts for the past 11 years, bringing top-tier touring artists to the stage.
