Over a short span of a couple of decades, Saline County has become a diverse, thriving community, with culture growing daily. I got a phone call recently that points to this growth. Piper Knutson is a member of a local group of artists called Art Association of Central Arkansas. She asked me about beginning a database on MySaline for visual artists. I think it’s a great idea, so this blog is the beginning of it!
There’s more info below, but we’re also looking for a good name for the directory. Use the comment section to help us out! Musicians, we didn’t forget you. We’ll soon begin a separate database for that.
We’ll have a page on MySaline with a list of artist names, their medium(s), contact info & web address. The listings will be free, but there will soon be the option to place a premium ad. To be included in this listing, fill out the form below. For questions, email info@mysaline.com.
