History of the Artist Alley Project
The Kokomo Art Association, Greater Kokomo Downtown Association, City of Kokomo and Howard County worked together with other Kokomo businesses and organizations on an alley revitalization project in downtown Kokomo called Artist Alley. The once dark, forgotten alley between the County building and the Kokomo Art Association Artworks Gallery has materialized into an industrial, outdoor art gallery to enliven the downtown landscape. The creation of this alley has generated a dynamic visual experience for residents and visitors, created more venues for artwork in Kokomo, increased exposure and opportunities for artists who live and work in and around this region, educated the public about public art by stimulating discussion, provided a cultural draw for tourists and provided entrée for artists new to public art.
Artist Alley has provided a lighted space for mounted murals and sculptures to be featured. These efforts introduce high quality artistry in areas of high visibility. The addition of industrial themed artworks creates a connection to the rich industrial heritage of this community while adding an aesthetically pleasing environment for residents, workers, and visitors. Increased pedestrian activity in the downtown area is promoting economic growth for merchants and property owners in the adjacent properties.
