This program, solely of the University Heights Arts Association, places art in local businesses and community spaces through ongoing collaborations that benefit both the artist and the venue.
Available Resources.
Available space in public places allows artists to exhibit their work without the fees associated with a gallery. Participating venues hang a small plaque next to exhibited art. The plaque bears a unique cell phone code that leads to information about the artist and
the venue. Additional information about upcoming events at the location can also be found when accessing the cell phone code. A master code maps all venues. The Art Partnering Program coordinates with UHAA Online Markets and member web pages. The UHAA
began incorporating cell phone (QR code) technology into it’s programming in December of 2013, which we introduced to our partners.
One Membership. Multiple Networks.
Art is exhibited in storefronts, restaurants, galleries, churches and gift shops. Each offers a new audience and with it, a broader market for the artist and the venue. The UHAA Art
Partnering Program hosted more than 450 works of art at different locations in 2015.
NEW IN 2016!
