An invitation to extraordinary creative minds
Let people inside
your imagination.
20 artists. 20 creative worlds. One extraordinary experience.
Rural Art Revival™ · October 1–3, 2027
Wheatfield, Indiana
A personal invitation
Your work brought us here.
Your imagination takes us further.
What if an art show wasn’t just a place to display your work, but an opportunity to invite people inside your imagination?
Michel Keck is bringing together a founding group of just 20 exceptional visual artists, each with a distinct voice and approach to making. The gathering is small and juried, with artists personally invited for the originality of their work and the possibilities they bring.
We’re looking for artists excited to help create an experience that collectors will want to travel for. Something that sparks conversation, brings people joy, and leaves visitors talking about the artists they met long after the weekend is over.
10′ × 10′. Entirely your world.
Make the space
part of the art.
Each artist will have a 10′ × 10′ space beneath our large event tents. Think beyond a conventional display: your walls, entrance, displays, and the space overhead can become an extension of your artistic expression, within practical safety guidelines.
Wildly expressive. Beautifully minimal. Mysterious. Surreal. Imaginatively explosive. Whatever your world looks like, we want it to be unmistakably yours.
This isn’t about spending a fortune on displays. It’s about extraordinary imagination, and giving visitors a reason to step closer, stay a little longer, and connect with the person behind the work.
Room to create
No booth fee.
No sales commission.
Our goal is the caliber and atmosphere of a carefully curated art experience without a high cost of participation. There is no booth fee and no commission on artwork sales.
We’re planning to promote Rural Art Revival™ to collectors, serious art enthusiasts, and people who appreciate exceptional original art and experiences worth traveling for.
Just as valuable: time alongside 19 other talented creatives. Share ideas, make connections, inspire one another, and help shape something from the beginning.
A weekend built together
The art reaches
beyond your space.
The vision extends across Michel and her husband’s three-acre property: original art, live music, food, drinks, and interactive experiences where visitors can contribute something of their own.
We’re also exploring a permanent outdoor installation that could grow through visitor contributions year after year. These shared experiences are being developed as the inaugural gathering takes shape.
All participating artists will be on site Friday and Saturday. Sunday participation is optional for visiting artists; Michel Keck Studio & Gallery will remain open. See the weekend hours.
Be part of the beginning
