Art & exploration for everyone.

Enhancing Everyday Experiences Through Art & Exploration Since 2017 we have partnered with artists and local organizations to make space for performance, tabletop storytelling, and hands-on making.

Who we are

Since 2017 Artify Ocala has served Marion County alongside visual and performing artists from many disciplines. We connect people to opportunities to showcase work and weave artistry into everyday community life.

Programs

What we do

Three core programs — performance, tabletop storytelling, and community outreach — plus the makerspace.

Performing art events

Through Brick City Glam we create space for performance artists to develop, grow, and share self-expression.

Storytelling Knights

Tabletop role-playing for all ages and experience levels — collaborative storytelling in a welcoming, high-energy environment.

Community art outreach

We support artistic events that enrich Ocala and greater Marion County for creators and audiences alike.

2nd & 4th Wednesdays

Maker meetups

In person on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month, 7pm–9pm, at the Marion County Maker Collective, 3650 NE 25th Street (1A). Bring a project, share what you are making, and collaborate.
