This Friday, Milwaukee ArtBeat paints the scene with another event in support of art programs throughout the city. Starting at 8 p.m., you'll hear from five artists, view their work and get a sneak-peak at what makes their creative side tick.

Featured artists include poet Aaron Lundquist (poet), Shelby Keefe (painter), Jeremy Scott (musician), Steve Daubs (photographer and author) and The M.U.T.E.S (comedic acting troupe).

Milwaukee ArtBeat raises awareness and funding for art programming through visual and performance art of all types, artist interviews, audience participation and gallery showings.

Hit the Hide House, 2625 S. Greely St., for this night of artistic impressions. A $6 donation gets you admission to the show and the gallery; doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show starts at 8 p.m.
