AUBURN, Ind. – The Downtown Auburn Business Association and Auburn Main Street have announced plans for the 2025 downtown summer art exhibit.
The exhibit is entitled “Downtown in Full Swing” and will feature 20 wooden porch swings. The porch swings are being made by local carpenter Craig Presley from 4 Quarter Wood Products of Pleasant Lake.
The wooden swings will be on display throughout downtown from June through September. The swings will be painted and decorated by local and regional artists and will be placed on removable stands for the duration of the exhibit.
Entries will be juried by the University of Saint Francis art department.
The swings will be auctioned at the completion of the exhibit with proceeds being split between each artist and D.A.B.A.
Area artists interested in participating in the exhibit may pick up an application and artist guidelines at Carbaugh Jewelers, 108 E. 7th St., Auburn, or by visiting the DABA website daba4auburn.org.
Deadline for registration is March 14. The final 20 artists will be selected by the DABA art committee from all applications submitted.
