Why:  Arkansas Hospice Chief Philanthropy Officer Shannon Boshears said, “We’re excited to partner with the Argenta Arts District to bring this wonderful community event for everyone to enjoy. We want to support the re-emergence of some of those areas hit the hardest by the economic impact of COVID-19 – the arts and the restaurant and hospitality industry. While we encourage the community to support these areas at the event, it will also benefit the mission of Arkansas Hospice to bring care to Arkansans in need of compassion and end-of-life care. Together, this is all very much a celebration of life and the things that bring meaning to us.”
