This project has gone live. Midwest Agenda is a free directory listing art news, exhibition listings, websites and other projects for art and artists in the Midwest.
COMING MAY 1, 2021: Midwest Agenda
WHAT
Midwest Agenda is a space for artists, art spaces, and arts organizations in the Midwest to present press releases and announcements of current events. It is a free space, and any art-related statement is welcome. Midwest Agenda promotes art events for all disciplines, especially artist-run spaces with limited resources. This site is powered by word-of-mouth. Please share widely so it may grow.
HOW
An email blast requesting your news is sent around the 20th of each month, but you can send your exhibition listing or news any time. Submit your listing here.
WHO
This space is run by Blair Schulman, an art writer and critic based in the Midwest. My work uses sweat equity. You can support this project through Patreon.
DISCLAIMER
Illegal or seditious activities of any sort will not be tolerated nor placed here. I reserve the right to decide which press releases will run on this site, and can be removed at any time at my sole discretion.
