Indianapolis Art Center Announces New Title Sponsor for Broad Ripple Art Fair

OneAmerica will bring a weekend of art and culture to thousands of Central Indiana residents this spring as the title sponsor of the Broad Ripple Art Fair.  The Indianapolis Art Center announced the title sponsorship today.  The 46th annual art fair will take place on the grounds of the Indianapolis Art Center May 21st and 22nd of this year. 

“OneAmerica has helped make the Broad Ripple Art Fair one of the top-ranked art fairs in the state for years,” said Patrick Flaherty, President and Executive Director of the Indianapolis Art Center.  “Their new commitment not only helps us host a delightful weekend of art and culture every year, but also supports the everyday mission of the Indianapolis Art Center.”

The OneAmerica Broad Ripple Art Fair will feature more than 230 national-level artists and craftsmen selling handmade, one-of-a-kind art, hands-on art activities, art making demonstrations, gourmet food and beer, and live entertainment on three stages, including a kids stage.  The annual fair attracts more than 15,000 people to the Art Center each May.  The fair is the non-profit’s largest fundraiser each year.

“OneAmerica has enjoyed a great experience as a sponsor of the Broad Ripple Art Fair for the last seven years.  We’re delighted to take our sponsorship to the next level in 2016,” said Jim Freeman, OneAmerica Vice President of Community Affairs.  “The art fair is an outstanding community event, and our associates have really enjoyed the opportunity to be involved.  We are pleased to support such a great art and family event in our hometown.”
