UAMS Health Little Rock Open 2026 Official Art
This year the UAMS Health Little Rock Open will celebrate its 45th year. The Little Rock Open is the second-longest continuous professional men’s tournament in the United States, only behind the US Open. The Little Rock Open has seen up-and-coming players in the past like Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Jack Sock, Ben Shelton, and Michael Zheng, just to name a few. With this in mind, we are looking to our local and state artists to help us achieve a new “look.” Like other large tournaments, we crave creativity, competition, energetic crowds, and really good tennis. We are asking artists to help us create our very first theme art with these elements in mind. The Little Rock Open is such a special event. It’s 10 days of friends, family, food, sometimes a little rain, and above all an athletic spectacle like no other in Arkansas.
We would like this theme art to be a new element to our tournament. We would like the art to capture the spirit of tennis and the vibrant energy that fills the grounds of Rebsamen Tennis Center during the UAMS Health Little Rock Open.
The chosen art will be considered for t-shirts and posters that will be sold at the tournament. This art will be used in marketing and will be recognized as the “Official Art of the UAMS Health Little Rock Open 2026.” The winning artists will be recognized on Tuesday, May 26th during our Sponsor Night. The artists will also be mentioned courtside during announcements throughout the week and on multiple social media posts.
