Shelby County Arts Fest will be offering Intro to ARTS classes on February 25th from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Echo Effect (102 East Washington Street, Shelbyville, Indiana). This event provides opportunities for adults to try a variety of art classes taught by local professional artists.

Shelby County, IN Nonprofits, Schools, and Government Agencies are invited to attend the interactive half-day workshop, “Purdue Extension’s Navigating Difference: Cultural Awareness,” on Thurs., February 2 (8:30am-Noon) at Echo Effect Arts Campus in which participants explore personal and cultural values, biases, prejudices and views. Through conversation and activities, participants learn how culture shapes us, how cultures are different and similar and how we can recognize our own culture(s), including our organization’s culture. Please RSVP to attend this free workshop. *Only two members per organization. Thank you to Blue River Community Foundation and Shelby County Chamber of Commerce for organizing this workshop.
