Arkansas PBS, also known as AR PBS, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US. Founded in 1966, the network employs approximately 70 individuals and reported $45.0M in revenue as of 2023. It functions as a tier 2 media tech buyer. The company specializes in operating Arkansas’s only statewide public media network, which delivers daily productions and programs primarily through broadcast television and radio.
On February 20, 2026, a PBS Kids official visited Arkansas for a public forum, as public television supporters intensified their campaign to reverse Arkansas' decision to cut ties with PBS. This effort includes a new advocacy group, chaired by two former state first ladies, formed to keep public television affiliation. This campaign coincides with Arkansas TV's 60th anniversary of serving the state by informing, educating, inspiring, and entertaining its viewers. Earlier, on February 15, the citizen-led group "Friends of Arkansas PBS" announced its formation, with former Arkansas First Ladies Barbara Pryor and Gay White serving as honorary co-chairs, aiming to preserve programming from the national Public Broadcasting Service in Arkansas.
