Giving back starts with the Penrod Arts Fair

Penrod has become synonymous with the September Arts Fair bearing its name. After all, the Penrod Arts Fair attracts over 300 hundred artists and 20,000 people each year.

But, the Penrod Society's mission extends beyond the Penrod Arts Fair. Each year, the Penrod Society accepts grant requests and awards monetary grants to Indiana arts and culture organizations. These gifts are made possible from the proceeds from the Penrod Arts Fair and Evening with Penrod events.
