We’d like to congratulate our colleagues at Alice L. Walton School of Medicine for reaching this historic milestone. We’re excited to collaborate with AWSOM as they enhance traditional medical education with the arts, humanities, and whole health principles!
This is AWSOM. Alice L. Walton School of Medicine is reshaping medical education in a new state-of-the-art facility in Bentonville, Arkansas, where the next generation of physician leaders will experience an innovative, four-year MD program that enhances conventional medical education with a whole-person approach to care. The one-of-a-kind facility is designed by Polk Stanley Wilcox with landscape and rooftop park design by OSD and is being brought to life by Crossland Construction Company, Inc. AWSOM is located on the Crystal Bridges campus, home to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and Heartland Whole Health Institute, minutes from downtown Bentonville and connected to the cities of Northwest Arkansas via the 40-mile paved Razorback Greenway.
