INDIANAPOLIS — Jiffy Lube of Indiana was honored recently with the Americans for the Arts’ national Arts and Business Partnership Award, one of only ten U.S. companies being honored and the first company in Indianapolis to receive this award.
Jiffy Lube of Indiana’s “Every Part Matters” project started as a way to cover up graffiti at a local store and has progressed into partnership with the Arts Council of Indianapolis. In addition to supporting and hiring local artists, they’ve also created a new apprentice program that will give paid experience to emerging artists. Two well-known Hoosier artists, Pamela Bliss and Ismeal Nieves, have just completed their murals!
There are currently 14 completed murals around the Indianapolis area, with plans for even more murals in the future.
