Statehouse Convention Center

The cavernous interior of this center looks like it’s been refreshed recently with modern art pieces. The layout is a bit confusing but the staff will help you find your way round. Parking can be interesting as you will probably end up on the street outside somewhere; bring pocket change. I’m not sure if there is any parking validation being available here?

If you’re looking to plan a formal event in the Little Rock area, the Statehouse convention is the location to consider. It’s centrally located downtown on the water front, facility is large and well kept internally and externally. Another cool point, it’s just a block from the Clinton Library, which is world renowned for its lectures and state of the art architecture. I recently attended a Christmas banquet here and I was impressed by the catering, service, warm ambiance, and live musical performances.

The Statehouse Convention Center is right down town in Little Rock, along the Arkansas river and adjoining the flagship hotel, the Peabody. IT has an exhibition floor and several large Ballrooms and meeting rooms for large coferences and small conventions.
Outside along one side is an interesting park installation. It has an authentic and ornate Chinese upscale entrance, adorn in bright reds and yellow, carved from wood, like you might find in Hong Kong or China. It is to honor H.K.Lee, a kungdu master in the style that is known as Tae Kwon Do. There is a nice garden and statues of MR. Lee and several dedications. Apparently the grand reopening of this facility in the laste 90’s was with this martial art tradition’s gathering.
This is the main meeting hall for Little Rock, and it isn’t far from government buildings and downtown businesses, hotels and restaurants.
