The Arkadelphia Arts Center, which the Clark County Arts and Humanities Council has been putting together in the former Royal Theater downtown, will open Tuesday, Oct. 11, with a ribbon-cutting at 4 p.m. and a reception to follow. Farrell Ford, a founder of the Caddo River Art Guild, is a mover behind the new arts center, so this year’s Round About Artist Studio Tour Oct. 14-16 will have a presence at the Arts Center.
