Indiana Arts Commission Announces Lifelong Arts Indiana
Informed by field best-practices, Lifelong Arts Indiana empowers artists to develop their own approach to sharing creative experiences with older adults, ages sixty-five and older, in their community—and provides access to funds to help make it happen.
Lifelong Arts Indiana includes training, one-on-one coaching to develop partnerships and curriculums, and some funding to help bring everything to life.
Who is this for?
We think artists with some experience in teaching are the best fit to participate in Lifelong Arts Indiana. This program will provide artists with the opportunity to expand their teaching to older adults in an informed, intentional way.
Recently we've been hosting online conversations to help put us all on the same page as to the benefits of creative aging. We still have a few more of those sessions on the books if you're interested in learning more. But if you're like me and ready to jump in, go ahead and submit an application to participate in the Lifelong Arts Indiana program!

Applications are due August 4, 2021.

I was disappointed to find this program is not anything to help a lifelong artist who is now senior (age 75) to reach the public with his work, at its full maturity. I don’t need to be a student of a younger artist. I need to show my multi-arts work, and publish. Opportunities in that area would be appreciated. I understand that it won’t be this program. Thanks.
