Shelby artists at the gallery
Art on the Square gallery in Greensburg is hosting an “artist swap” for the month of October. The gallery is hosting a free-to-the-public wine and cheese opening for the Shelbyville Artists Guild Association show from 4 to 7 p.m. Friday.
From now until into November, the artists at the Decatur County Art Connection and Art on the Square gallery are swapping works with the Shelby Art Guild Association to foster friendships with other artists in Southeastern Indiana.
Included in the current show are artists like Sharon and Steve Fansler, Kenton Jones, Priscilla Wilson and Patricia Wade, members all of the 48 acting artists showing at the SAGA Gallery in downtown Shelbyville.
Children and young people will have an opportunity to see their creations displayed digitally in an exhibition at one of Scotland’s national galleries.
The 2025 Worcester 100 Open Art Exhibition will be held at the Artery Gallery, Croft Walk, from Saturday 8 to Saturday, March 15.
The free event will showcase a range of artistic styles, including paintings, prints, photography, and sculptures.
Opening times will vary throughout the week.

Three in five small UK museums and galleries fear closure amid declining revenue, new research suggests
Three in five small museums and galleries in the UK fear closure amid declining revenue and footfall, research published this week suggests. The survey of 40 small, independent attractions—those with fewer than 100,000 annual visitors—also found that four in five (78%) reported the current period as the most challenging the sector has faced, while over half (58%) said overall income has not returned to its pre-Covid levels.
The research, conducted by the cloud platform GoDaddy in partnership with the charity Kids in Museums, surveyed small museums as well as galleries, historic buildings and heritage sites. Alison Bowyers, the executive director of Kids in Museums, tells The Art Newspaper that UK museums are suffering more than their counterparts in mainland Europe.
