The Fall 2016 Muncie YART
5:00pm to 9:00pm @
Corner of Walnut & Charles Streets
Muncie, Indiana – YART is Coming!
YART is a Yard Sale for Art! YART began in Muncie, Indiana with students at Ball State University and continues in several U.S. cities! The Muncie YART is now held Downtown, twice a year, Spring and Fall, on the First Thursday of every May and October.
The Fall 2016 Muncie YART will be held in conjunction with the 2016 ArtsWalk, in the Old National Financial lot on the corner of Walnut and Charles Streets in Downtown Muncie, Indiana, on Thursday, October 6th, from 5-9pm.
This community art sale, with a goal of making art affordable and accessible to everyone, brings together artists and art patrons in a casual and unique setting.
All forms of art are welcome! Art of all kinds, by all kinds of artists! YART encourages interaction between artists and the community, hoping to make art more accessible, especially to those who think they cannot afford to buy art for themselves. To this goal, all YART art will be priced below $40!
Each YART Artist will be present throughout YART to meet the public, discuss their art, handle sales personally, and some artists will be making art LIVE at YART!
The Fall 2016 Muncie YART will feature a wide variety of jewelry, clothing, photography, oil/acrylic/watercolor paintings, fused glass, ceramics, knits, pottery, candles, toys, drawings, sculpture, lampwork glass, stuffed animals, digital art, mosaics, the The Bookish Princess, Midwest Writer's Workshop's Poems While You Wait, the Art Mart Mobile Demo Lab, LIVE ART and LIVE MUSIC, and so much more!
Fun for all ages - YART and the annual ArtsWalk are for the whole family!
Miss Moth and the YART Artists very much thank Cheryl Crowder of the Muncie Downtown Development Partnership and Old National Financial for their generous support! :) YART is an all-volunteer, no-budget, community event. THANK YOU!
