We know that one of the things that [appeals to] people who we hope to have stay here and talent that we want to attract from outside—including businesses and young people who have startup companies—is quality of life. That’s all key to economic well-being.

I would encourage local businesses to check out local artists to add some visual inspiration to their office space.

The DABL event directly helped me foster a productive, working relationship with a Madison area business, that not only led to a large-scale commission, but an additional art sale from my online inventory for their reception/lobby area.

I applaud the work of Dane Arts, 100state, and MadCity Bazaar for bringing DABL to Madison. I look forward to the next event in 2016.

DABL is a wonderful opportunity, not only to find art made in Dane County, but also to learn about the artist’s process and to hear the passion behind their work.
