This October, celebrate the arts during Choose Indie Art Month hosted by the American Independent Business Alliance. We’ll recognize all types of artists — crafters, painters, musicians, actors, writers, and others — and boast about the positive impacts artists have on our community and local economy.
“There’s perhaps nothing more personal than a gift of the arts,” said Cynthia Freese, Artists Sunday Director. “Give something special, unique, and handcrafted this holiday season and support local artists and the local economy.”
Celebrating local art during Choose Indie Art Month in October elevates the goals of our Shop Indie Local Holiday campaign, too. We can encourage people to give a gift from the heart and find one-of-a-kind handmade gifts from local artisans and experiences at independent arts venues.
How are communities celebrating art this month?
