Exhibit: 2024 SPOOKY SHOW
ARTSWIN’s Halloween-themed art exhibit
(All entries must be Pre-Registered)
Concept
The Arts Council is all about Halloween, and we’re back with our annual Spooky Show this fall! Throughout October, our gallery will be packed with spooky, funny, and whimsical creations. We’ll fill our walls with eerie 2D scenes and spirits, but we also want our 3D artists to summon some creepy creatures to haunt the gallery for the season.

Evansville Half Marathon
The YMCA of Southwestern Indiana is seeking artists or artisans to create a unique item (jewelry, scarf, print, charm, etc) to sell at the 2024 Half Marathon and 5 Mile participant Expo. Interested individuals are asked to email a description of their proposed item to Ashley Cabanaw, [email protected].

Midwest Award for Artists with Disabilities
The Midwest Award for Artists with Disabilities supports and celebrates accessibility in the arts. It recognizes that the funding community in the Midwest has not historically invested in disabled artists and that increasing support for this group is an important part of increasing accessibility in the arts. It also advocates for the arts being viable employment, which is often overlooked by funding agencies supporting people with disabilities.
