Art Beat is a free, downtown South Bend stroll along the streets and sidewalks featuring the work of local visual, performing, and culinary artists. The event showcases South Bend and the surrounding community’s artists and creates awareness of the role that downtown organizations and businesses play in the artisans’ promotion and success.
How It All Started...
A group of like-minded individuals came together in 2003 with a common idea — to showcase the work of local visual, performing, and culinary artists in the heart of South Bend. Art Beat was born and has over the past several years become a downtown South Bend signature art and cultural event.
Art Beat Featured in Arts & Earth Trail
The Northern Indiana Art & Earth Trail features unique artisans, crafters, farmers and art events within 7 Northern Indiana counties. Art Beat is featured in the Notre Dame loop.
