Live in America Springdale brings together artists and communities as we break bread, collaborate in workshops, create live performance and visual arts programming, and learn from one another. This site documents our thinking, our cooking, our explorations, our art, our mishaps, our growth, and our conversations.
Yard Art Celebration of Artist Natalie George
Saturday, May 11th from 7 to 9pm at 506 Holcomb in Springdale. Free! All are welcome!
Working with local collaborators Megan Pobywajlo and Reilly Dickens-Hoffman, we’ve built a structural overhead playground that invites the community to immerse themselves (and add to!) a world of color, light, and hundreds of jump ropes.
Yard Art Celebration of Helmar Anitok
All of my creations connect me to Marshallese traditions, history, people, and culture. My inspiration comes from the people.

Led by Live in America Festival Artist, Ben Hall, this residency is based on the impetus to exchange and engage in organic conversations between old friends with overlapping concerns and open-ended dreams.
Guillermo Gómez Peña’s Live in America Cocktail
With photos from the performance slide-showing in my mind, I watch Gómez Peña from across the room. Shorter than I imagined. Good rings. He leads with a discussion of how many brujas he senses in the house. He exhibits a deep appreciation for good beans. Offers a dick joke. In a short time, he is unapologetically holding court around our dining table. And of course, he wants a cocktail. And of course, the only liquor we have is that bucketful of Fireball shots.
CoOp Team

Yard Art Celebration of Danielle Hatch
The building exterior is transformed into a space of radical refusal of the status quo that divides interior and exterior domestic environments, embracing instead a language of visual freedom and decoration.
