When we start adding up the reasons people should come visit one of our many creative hubs, we get carried away! So let’s keep it simple: If you enjoy art in a quirky, creative, inspiring space, come see us!
Each year, we coordinate fun Signature Events that highlight the best features of our creative economy. Whether you’re looking for whimsy or inspiration, fine art or new creative challenges, our Events have something for everyone!
Celebrate Noblesville Creates with us on September 25, 2025 from 5:15pm to 9:30pm. This event will include our annual awards ceremony, recognizing some of the most inspirational artists and arts advocates from our region’s thriving arts scene.
We work with local artists and arts organizations to present classes and workshops to adults, children, novices, hobbyists, experts — anyone interested in spending a little time investing in their own creativity and flexing their artistic muscles.
Did you know that we manage exhibits in five different spaces in Hamilton County? We also manage two retail locations featuring handmade items by local creatives and companies. You can browse our online gallery to see what’s on display!
Are you looking to submit your work to Noblesville Creates for one of our five gallery spaces? We have opportunities for artists and creatives at all stages of their artistic careers. Become part of our arts community by submitting your work today!
We invite organizations and businesses of all sizes to become our Partners in growing the Creative Economy. Bringing these like minds to the same table to share insights, brainstorm and collaborate makes us all of Central Indiana stronger!
Noblesville Creates needs volunteers for events, programs, and daily tasks. Volunteering is a great way to get involved with and support our arts community, while also having a lot of fun! Let us know how you would like to help, and we’ll get you connected!
