Since 1996, Art & Soul has helped advance the careers of Black artists in Indianapolis. Each year, four Featured Artists are recognized for their exemplary contributions to our creative community. The year-long program features public events that celebrate visual art, music, dance, and literature. Art & Soul is hosted by Indy Arts Council and supported annually by Lilly Endowment Inc.
