Benton Harbor Arts Association
The Benton Harbor Arts Association was founded in 1998 by a group of passionate community members and local business owners to promote a vibrant Benton Harbor Arts District. Our quarterly Art Hops and events like the Youth Art Fair and Artoberfest have brought thousands of people to the Arts District over the years.
With our platform, we believe in promoting, supporting, and funding local art. Our events highlight incredibly talented and passionate local artists and artisans as well as the businesses that populate the Arts District. It is these kinds of partnerships that help us continue to fund and coordinate the creation of murals throughout the Arts District and beyond.
We are a 501(c)(3) grassroots organization dedicated to the revitalization of the Benton Harbor Arts District with a firm belief that “Art Builds Community.”
