Four homes between Fayetteville and Bentonville will open to visitors on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 7-8, for the second annual "Art of Home: A Weekend Tour of Artful Homes." Each house shows a different way of building everyday living spaces around original artwork.

The self-guided tour is presented by MIXD Gallery in Rogers and At Home in Arkansas magazine, and it runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days. It coincides with MIXD Gallery's fourth annual "By Design" exhibition on art and functional design.

"Collections are not reserved for gallery walls," said MIXD curator Allison Hobbs. "They belong where we live, gather, celebrate, and unwind." Organizers describe the event as a celebration of the region's growing community of artists, collectors and designers.

Visitors can see all four homes in one day or spread them across the weekend. Tickets are $55, with part of the proceeds benefiting New Beginnings, a Fayetteville nonprofit that provides bridge housing and support for people experiencing homelessness.
