♥️ Downtown artists hope to nurture a new generation of artists as well as developing an appreciation for art by introducing children to living artists and their work in the environment of a studio or gallery. Additionally the artists feel it is important that children feel welcomed into the art scene and see it as a place where they belong. Downtown has 12 art galleries all within walking distance representing over 100 individual artists.
