Calling all makers, art appreciators, and curators of curious things — we’ve found a picture-perfect way to enjoy art in Indy.
Free Little Art Galleries, aka FLAGs, are small boxes stationed around the country where locals can donate, take, or simply enjoy tiny art. They’re like Free Little Libraries or Sidewalk Joy, except dedicated to miniature masterpieces.
Here are a few ways you can enjoy FLAGs in the Circle City.

There are currently four known FLAGs in the Indy metropolitan area — and hundreds around the globe — which can be found using this map.
