Letter from the Executive Director

Thank you for another great year filled with awards, great arts and

science, and most importantly— reaccreditation with the

American Alliance of Museums. The Board of Trustees, staff, Mayor and

City Council, members, sponsors, and visitors all contributed to this

distinction. The site visitors were impressed by the passion that everyone

feels for the Center.

We began the year with a ceremony at the Governor’s Mansion when we

received the Governor’s Arts Award for Art Education. We next earned

the Arkansas Museums Association’s award for conservation of artworks

from the African American art aspect of the Permanent Collection and

we won the Pine Bluff Chamber of Commerce’s Non-Profit Business of

the Year.

As we approach fifty years, in 2018, we are stronger than ever and owe a

debt of gratitude to those who made us an institution for arts AND

science. They could not have foreseen the juicy intersection between

arts, engineering, and technology that ignites interest in young people

and keeps ASC relevant in today’s whirl of coding, Arduino,

Makey Makey, Scratch, Alice, and the myriad other programs, gizmos,

and gadgets that we offer.

Your participation and financial support provide a solid foundation and

we especially appreciate those who have

included ASC in their estate planning. Your

financial support, especially larger gifts to the

Endowment, will keep The Arts & Science Center

as one of Arkansas’ premier educational and

cultural institutions.

Thank you for your years of dedication to the

Arts & Science Center and know that we are

financially stable, devoted to serving this community, and we see

a bright future— thanks to you.

See you at the Center,

Lenore

Letter from the 2016 Chairman of the Board of Trustees

Bravo! Encore! 2016 was a great year for the

Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas.

Highlighted by prestigious awards, reaccreditation,

impressive performing arts, astonishing exhibits,

and a very successful Potpourri, Dr. Lenore Shoults,

the ASC Staff, and many volunteers put in countless

hours making the Arts Center something in which

Southeast Arkansas should be proud of.

Always keeping the mission in mind– serving as a

cultural crossroad: engaging, educating, and

entertaining through the arts and sciences– ASC

has excelled with STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math)

programming. ASC has collaborated with local schools and children’s

programs to offer awesome experiences to our local youth. These

experiences, however, are not simply to provide entertainment, but to also

serve as a foundation for employability skills in the ever changing,

STEAM-driven workplace.

As industry-related organizations have recognized, the work being done by

ASC is nothing short of phenomenal. With Dr. Shoults’ leadership, the ASC

Staff’s passion, a dedicated board of trustees, and the overwhelming

community support, The Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas will

continue to thrive.

It has been an honor to serve as your chairman in 2016.

Nick Makris

Thanks to a great Board who volunteer their

time and treasure for service to the
