The purpose of the ArtsMixers is to offer networking opportunities and encourage collaborations among area artists, arts professionals and arts advocates. Each ArtsMixer highlights 3 local projects and/or organizations. All attendees are given the opportunity to briefly introduce themselves to help initiate new connections. Complimentary food from a local restaurant is provided, together with entertainment featuring local musicians/DJs.

ArtRoot organized the first ArtsMixer in the fall of 2014. Since then, we have hosted 13 ArtsMixers at various local venues, with attendance ranging from 50 - 100 people. A number of new ideas, projects and connections that benefit local artists and organizations have emerged from the ArtsMixers.
