#FreeArtHapeville

SAVE THE DATE!  

Saturday, December 6th | 2-6 PM | Arts Alley 


#FreeArtHapeville is an initiative through the Main Street program that provides free art for the community while offering an opportunity for local artists to promote their work. To reach this goal, grant funding is allocated to the participating artists. There is also a chance for attendees to support the artists by purchasing artwork they have for sale. These events align with the Main Street program's goal to provide accessible public art. 

Stay up to date on upcoming events on Instagram @HapevilleMainStreet &  @HapevilleArt 

If you are an artist who is interested in participating, please email Nikki Cales at ncales@hapeville.org for more information.

Program Details:

The Main Street Artist Residency Program offers a unique opportunity for artists to immerse themselves in a creative community. This residency provides free studio space in a vibrant downtown setting where artists can work on their projects, engage with the public, and connect with other creatives. This residency is ideal for artists who are outgoing and enjoy engaging with the community. 

This is an opportunity for artists to work on a specific body of work to exhibit at the end of the residency. We ask that applicants provide a proposal of what they will be working toward throughout their residency. Following the residency, there will be a week-long exhibition where the artist can display their work and open the gallery for friends, family, and the public. The artist will also participate a Gallery Crawl event.
