Birmingham Art Walk

Where will your project take place?

Downtown Birmingham

Briefly Describe Your Project Idea:

The Birmingham Public Arts Board is partnering with the Birmingham Shopping District and the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center. Artists will be partnered with various shops throughout downtown Birmingham where they may display their artwork throughout the store. Patrons may buy art and store items.

Why does your community need this project?

The Birmingham Shopping District and Public Arts Board want to bring people together for a social activity that celebrates art, artists, and downtown shops. The intent is to bring people together and showcase the variety of art, retail, and restaurants that Birmingham has to offer.

What do you hope to achieve through this project?

We hope to create another reason for people to visit downtown Birmingham and all of its businesses. We are hoping to increase awareness of the various shops downtown by partnering them with artists involved on an art walk tour. We also hope to assist the artist community by promoting their work and enabling a showcase event, and we hope to bring people together to socialize and interact in our downtown.
