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 our community.

Find a gallery

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

Here's where you can find our local FLAGs:

Little Flower Free Art Box, in the alley north of 10th and Emerson
Speedway FLAG, outside Speedway Artist Collective
Carmel FLAG, located on Castle Row Overlook and Castle Ct.
Craft Sharing Library, 5151 Caroline Ave.

Psst — know of a gallery that isn’t listed on the map? Submit or update a FLAG.

Create your own FLAG

Feeling inspired by these little boxes of joy? You can create your own to place in your front yard, or with approval from a public library, school, store, or community space. Either build your own box or purchase a pre-made box.

Once you’re ready to set it up, don’t forget to submit your FLAG on the map.

Put your art in a gallery

Whether you want to keep your art local or spread the love, there’s a way to get your work out there.

You can start by dropping your work off at galleries around town, and if you’ve still got goodies to share, check out this list of gallery addresses. Pro tip: Check the guidelines of each gallery beforehand to be sure your submission will be accepted.
