The Momentary will host the Aux Arc Record Fair on Wednesday, September 20, from noon to 5 p.m. inside RØDE House, offering vinyl lovers and vintage collectors a chance to browse crates of records, vintage clothing, and audio gear from local vendors.
This event invites attendees to dig through selections of vinyl spanning various genres while enjoying food trucks on site, making the afternoon as much about community as collecting. For $5, or $4 for Momentary members, visitors can shop unique finds and chat with fellow enthusiasts in a setting that meshes music culture with the contemporary vibe of Bentonville’s arts scene.
The Momentary, located at 507 SE E Street in Bentonville, is known for blending visual art with performance and music, and the Aux Arc Record Fair plays straight into that mix by spotlighting Northwest Arkansas’s vibrant vinyl subculture. This event fits alongside the contemporary programming at The Momentary, which features rotating exhibits and a calendar full of performances and happenings.
Tickets can be secured online or by calling the Box Office at (479) 657-2335. The record fair highlights the growing interest in vinyl and vintage finds—something that’s been gaining traction across NWA as folks search for a tangible connection to music and style in the digital age.
For those who missed the recent Crystal Bridges Tyson Scholars application window or folks wanting a break from the usual Bentonville buzz, the record fair offers a fresh, local way to spend part of a Wednesday afternoon. And if you’re curious about other city efforts, the recent Bentonville City Council work on noise complaints shows the neighborhood’s balance between preserving culture and everyday life continues to evolve.
Aux Arc Record Fair opens at noon and runs until 5 p.m., giving plenty of time for digging through crates or just hanging out with friends. Whether you’re a collector, a vintage clothing hunter, or simply want to check out the local music scene under a different light, the Momentary’s RØDE House is where to be this September 20.
