ArtsMemphis received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to produce three community arts events, bringing the work of Memphis’ finest arts organizations and working artists to communities with little or no exposure to the cultural sector. The first Pop Up ArtsFest was held in Frayser in October 2011. The third Pop Up ArtsFest is planned for the Orange Mound neighborhood April 29.
