About Art & Soul
For more than 25 years, Art & Soul has helped advance the careers of Black artists in Indianapolis. Each year, the festival kicks off Black History Month and features public events that celebrate Black visual art, music, dance, and literature. Art & Soul, presented by Indy Arts Council, is supported annually by Lilly Endowment Inc.
"We want everyone who comes through the door to feel special. Yes it's a celebration of Art & Soul, but it’s also a celebration of YOU–and who we are as people," said Valerie Phelps, Art & Soul 2023 program & production manager.
