Holiday 2022 marketing: Artists Sunday is November 27

By Becky McCray

We’re all using the same marketing theme this year: Shop Indie Local. When we work together to spread the word, we’ll multiply how many customers we reach.

Artists Sunday, supporting local artists nationwide

New to me this year is Artists Sunday, November 27, 2022.

If you make or sell local art, this is the event for you! And include the handcrafts in that. Anything made by hand sounds like art, at least for one day.

If you don’t usually carry local art, you could host a local artist in your business for Sunday, or even the whole post-Thanksgiving weekend.

Of course an event for artists has some artistic graphics for you to use. Check them at at Artists Sunday. Whatever your local and business style, you can probably find something to use. I rather like this one with wheat on it.

You can also use the square graphic (above) put together by the Shop Indie Local folks. It will coordinate with all their other graphics, in case you have a theme going.

The Artists Sunday site has a lot more resources you can tap.

“But I’m not open Sunday”

So promote online. Easy!
