Art Word of the Day: New harmony arts community
Term: New harmony arts community
Definition: Named for New Harmony, a
southwest Indiana frontier town founded by utopian seekers who called themselves Harmonists, the town has become an arts mecca. Two-hundred years after its founding in 1814, New Harmony is now led by retired physician and philanthropist Dr. George Rapp, descendant of the original founder, Reverend George Rapp. In 1997, Dr. George Rapp's focus on art collection and promotion motivated him to have annual "First Blush of Spring Paint-Outs" in New Harmony, which now has a population of about 1000 people. The project has become a joint project of The Hoosier Salon, the Indiana Plein-Air Painters Association, and the New Harmony Artists Guild. Artists compete for prizes and sales and hold workshops and also sessions to critique each other's work. The April 2004 Paint Out featured a workshop by plein-air landscape painter David Slonim.Credit:Written and submitted July 2004 by Steve Zimmerman, Art Collector and Historian of Indianapolis, Indiana.
Art Word of the Day
Every day I make an attempt to add a little bit more art knowledge to the Internet, one word at a time. Realizing there aren’t many comprehensive and complete online art dictionaries, I set out on a mission to compile my own.

Download the Brave Browser and get $5 in the cryptocurrency BAT!!
The Brave Browser pays you in BAT (Basic Attention Token) to allow them to display their ads, which you can then use the BAT you earn to tip content creators or just exchange for another crypto. I'm making about $15 a month just from the ads, which are very non-intrusive, and all while simply using the Internet as I normally would. Brave comes with a built in script blocker and ad blocker so it's also very fast and very safe. I opened Firefox the other day and regretfully remembered what a monster it is on resources.
If you download and use Brave as your Internet browser using this link we both get $5 in BAT!!

artopium, I Need Your Help!
Both @ArtTurtle and @Artopium (and perhaps soon @thejollyroger) are being needlessly downvoted by themarkymark. The more the delegator bots
are downvoted the less they will be able to upvote your content so this is an indirect attack on you! This is happening out of
pure vindictiveness as you know these bots are not spam and are powered by your steem power. Please help out by upvoting this comment
in order to counteract themarkymark's downvotes. Then please use your new downvote pool to downvote themarkeymark. He is a witness
and is abusing his power as such. Please unvote him for witness here.
He creates blacklists of thousands of Steemians he deems "inappropriate". I believe he is a majority cause for the drop in
the price in steem as he wrecklessly downvotes random content causing people to want to leave Steemit. Since he has over 500,000 SP
he can do quite a bit of damage, so it's going to take a concerted effort to get him to stop. Thank you!
