Indiana Heritage Arts

41st Exhibition and Sale

Indiana Heritage Arts( IHA) makes its home at the historic Brown County Art Gallery in Nashville, Indiana. The annual IHA Exhibition and Sale started as a local competition and grew to be statewide. It is now open to any artist with ties to Indiana.

The June IHA show begins on June 8, 2019 and runs until June 29. It is one of the largest art competitions in the Midwest, handing out as much as $ 80,000 in prize money and purchase awards to the winners. Over 130 artists enter art work to be juried and selected for hanging. All paintings are for sale.
The popular People’ s Choice award of $ 500 will be awarded at the close of this year’ s show to the artist garnering the most votes from the viewing audience.
Indiana Heritage Arts has acquired a permanent collection of more than 15 paintings that hang in the IHA space in the Brown County Art Gallery.
Jim Ross, Indianapolis gallery owner and long-time IHA show organizer, said,“ Our show’ s goal is to encourage artists of today who are working in the traditional style made renown by Hoosier artists painting in the late 1800s and early 1900s in Brown County.”
Last year’ s IHA Gold winner,“ Rainy Day Peonies” by Beth Schweier.
Bill Farnsworth is this year’ s judge. A 1980 graduate of Ringling College of Art and Design, Farnsworth has spent more than 34 years as an illustrator and fine artist.
