Artist Savannah Jacob, the Bates-Hendricks Neighborhood Association, and Artist Paul Williams are proud recipients of the Public Art for Neighborhoods grant through the Indy Arts Council. The grant funding has provided the design and fabrication of the Neighbors Gallery, it has also allowed us to fund the first 10 artists who display their work.

The mission of Neighbors Gallery is accessibility. To make viewing artwork accessible to neighbors, and to make displaying work more accessible to local artists. Through this accessibility the Neighbors Gallery hopes to simultaneously cultivate community and to contribute to the development of the Bates Hendricks art scene.
