Artists
We offer opportunities for artists to display their work in Downtown’s dedicated art spaces, pop-up galleries, and storefront exhibits. Whether you’re a painter, sculptor, photographer, or muralist, we’d love to feature your art in our growing creative district. You can also participate in events such as Third Thursday, Plein Air on Poyntz, and quarterly Art Walks.
Makers
Are you a crafter, woodworker, potter, or handmade goods creator? Downtown hosts events where you can share and sell your work, including Third Thursday and Open Houses. Join us and showcase your unique craftsmanship to the community!
Entertainers
We’re looking for musicians, dancers, theatre troupes, and performers of all kinds to bring energy to our events and art spaces. From opening an artist reception with a dance performance to playing live music at the Musical Art Walks, there are plenty of ways to share your talent Downtown!
Vendors
If you’re an artist or maker interested in selling your work, we invite you to be a vendor at events like Third Thursday, where the streets come alive with local creativity, live performances, and community engagement.
