Looking for local art? There's an App for That!

The Arts Council of Long Beach is introducing a new app for Long Beach visitors and residents to access information on local art works. This new smartphone app is designed for users to access information and history on select art works, a project symbolizing Long Beach's commitment to art. Using GPS to find the user's location, the app allows searches under categories such as artist name, art type and location.

I know many small art organizations would appreciate an app of this nature for their local audiences. It would surely get their names out in the public and allow people to see what type of art and programs the organizations have to offer. There should definitely be some type of coupon or promo discount for first time users as a small incentive for people to start using the app and to spread the word!
