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.

There’s nothing quite like the smell of pine in the air as I walk down a path and feel the crunch of pine needles and fall leaves under my feet. I enjoy the adrenaline rush I feel as I see quick movements in the vegetation around me that puts my senses immediately on alert. Give me the outdoors and give me birds…lots of birds to photograph!…
