JULY MEET ME ON MAIN
Template for glass mosaic community project.
Saturday event will feature community mosaic, live music and much more as galleries, shops celebrate a summer night!
Carmel, IN – Have you ever wanted to be part of a community art project? This Saturday’s Allied Solutions’ Meet Me on Main in the Carmel Arts & Design District will give you that opportunity. Join us in the breezeway next to Sub Zero at 111 W. Main Street, Suite 130 for a chance to take part in the creation of a beautiful mosaic project that will ultimately be placed in Carmel for thousands to see in the future!
The mosaic, which is described as a “butterfly mural” by artist Nancy Keating, will be put together piece-by-piece under the direction of Keating – but with your hands as we create an authentic community art project once again in the District. You can take part from 5-9 p.m. this Saturday, July 10, as part of the Meet Me on Main event.
Meet Me on Main is the City of Carmel’s monthly “second Saturday” event along Main Street and Range Line Road to highlight our local galleries, restaurants and design-related businesses in the Carmel Arts & Design District. Art galleries and businesses will be featuring special events to help you experience the wonderful art-related and design-related features in our District. Live music will be playing in the streets and we are returning to the traditional prize giveaways that have been on hiatus since the global pandemic.
In addition to the community mosaic project, there will be an opportunity to register for three $100 gift prizes by visiting the 10 galleries and dropping your name and contact information into a special drawing that will take place on Monday, July 12. The prizes will include awesome features from District businesses. Be sure to visit as many galleries as possible to increase your chance to win.
