Indy Arts Council is putting the spotlight on central Indiana musicians, spoken word artists and teaching artists during Taylor Swift’s three-day Eras Tour stop in Indianapolis, November 1-3, 2024. Our city is expecting 200,000+ visitors throughout the weekend, and we are thrilled to elevate our local talent during this legendary experience.
Swiftie fans are invited to the Indianapolis Artsgarden for free make & take art activities led by ArtMix teaching artists. Craft your own eras-themed sunglasses, flower crowns, guitar pics, friendship bracelets and more.
Teaching Artists will lead you in a 15-minute guided instruction of how to create your work of art. Learn more and register for a free spot on Eventbrite.
