Art on the Bluffs Welcomes Millikin University's Blue Connection Gallery

Picture

Opened in 2003, Blue Connection is Millikin University's student-run, retail art gallery located in the Madden Arts Center in Downtown Decatur, Illinois and at the DMH Cancer Care Institute. Blue Connection features valuable, yet affordable artwork by Millikin students, faculty, and alumni artists. The gallery also serves as a laboratory experience for Millikin University's Arts & Entrepreneurship Program.

Millikin's Arts & Entrepreneurship Program is a six-credit sequence providing students with the tools necessary to think entrepreneurially by identifying their passion, recognizing opportunities, and developing viable business strategies. Students act as owners of Blue Connection, making all managerial and operational decisions for the gallery.

The Blue Connection will exhibit their inventory at the
Art On The Bluffs Inc. Art Walk on October 1st. We invite you to come out to the art walk to take in all the wonderful artwork this gallery has to offer!
