Arkansas Highway 36 (AR 36) is a designation for two state highways in Central Arkansas. One segment of 50.51 miles (81.29 km) runs from U.S. Route 64 (US 64) at Hamlet east to Interstate 57 (I-57) in Searcy. A second segment of 17.45 miles (28.08 km) runs from I-57 in Searcy east to Georgetown. Both routes are maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT).

One of the original 1926 Arkansas state highways, Highway 36 was established between Hamlet to Searcy largely along its modern alignment. Extensions to Kensett in 1938 and Georgetown in 1945 established the highway's present eastern terminus. The alignment through Searcy has also changed through the years to accompany the growth of the city as a regional hub, and the increased role of US 67 in the region's transportation system.
