Looking to support local arts without breaking the bank? The University of Indianapolis offers a dynamic lineup of theater, music, and visual art events that are open to the public — and affordably priced.

Here are three upcoming events we’ve got our eyes on this season:

  1. Department of Art and Design Faculty Exhibition | Oct. 27-Dec. 5 | Explore original works by UIndy’s talented art faculty in this annual exhibition, showcasing a diverse range of styles and mediums. Bonus: Swing by the opening reception on Nov. 3.
