About Art Walk:
Art Walk was founded in 2020 by a group of music students in response to the pandemic's impact on the creative world at DePauw University. The initiative began as a virtual event, using QR codes to showcase student works across campus, and has since evolved into an annual celebration of interdisciplinary creativity, collaboration, and community engagement. Art Walk offers DePauw students an opportunity to enhance their liberal arts education through creative projects and experiences, embodying the values of innovation, accessibility, and intellectual stimulation. With Art Walk 2023, the student organizers are committed to reaching new heights in artistic expression, fostering a sense of ongoing creative inspiration for all who participate.
