Hue Murals & Indy Auto Man car dealership announce Indy Arts Fest

Indianapolis, IN : On Labor Day of this year, Hue Murals, a mural business started by local artist Koda Witsken, and the local car dealership Indy Auto Man ( www.indyautoman.com ) will host the inaugural Indy Arts Fest. The festival will take place at Indy Auto Man’s new service building at 3130 Madison Avenue, Indianapolis, IN, on Monday, September 6, 2021, from 11 AM to 7 PM. It will center around the creation of six 8 ft x 12 ft murals, painted live at the event by six local artists: Dan “Handskillz” Thompson, Julie Davis Veach, Israel Solomon, Alexandria Hall, Becky Hochhalter, Lisa Sears & Hannah Johnson.

The festival will also highlight other local performing and visual artists, including live music, a special FX body painter, and a chalk artist. Graffiti artists will practice their art on junk cars and car parts throughout the event. There will also be a selection of local small arts businesses and food and beverage vendors.

“Indy has great arts festivals,” says organizer Koda Witsken, “but we wanted to start a festival that specifically celebrates the wonderful artists based right here in Indianapolis. Our goal is to provide a new platform for Indy artists and small businesses to showcase their talents, while allowing the local audience to enjoy what their city has to offer!”

Sponsors of the event include Blonde Entertainment providing headliner The Doo!, as well as Rock Garage Music providing daytime entertainment. Other sponsors include Synergize, 31Svn Street Dance Academy, Grupo Folclórico Macehuani, ArtMix, and Party-Pod.

General admission tickets will be $10. VIP tickets will cost $100 and include prime parking with mural backdrop, exclusive Party-Pod access, and two drink tickets. Tickets can be purchased on the Indy Arts Fest website at www.indyartsfest.com. General admission tickets will also be available in person the day of the festival.
