The Ohio Artist Registry (OAR) is an exciting opportunity for artists to share their work, connect with the creative community, and establish an online presence—all on a free, virtual platform! The OAR encourages artists working in all art forms, throughout Ohio and beyond, to create a profile, which allows them to better promote themselves and their work. Being listed in the OAR provides artists with new opportunities to share their work with clients, galleries, patrons, and audiences. A listing in the OAR does not confer an endorsement, approval, or verification by the Ohio Arts Council.
For more information, contact Kathy Signorino, artist programs director, at kathy.signorino@oac.ohio.gov or 614-728-6140.

I use art as an expression of showing my love poured back out to our Father in Heaven. He delivered me many times from drug addictions and other not so good things for my soul. I celebrate 9 years clean from heroin 🙏☺️ In every season I have seen His different characteristics, and I have tried to put it on paper or canvas.…
I am a hobbyist photographer that has enjoyed photography for several years. Living in northeastern Ohio I am afforded opportunities to travel to some of the most beautiful countryside scenes.
