Indy 500 themed artwork featured on Main Street in Speedway

Ashlyn Wright joined WRTV as a digital content producer in February 2023.

This year, the Indy Arts Council is focusing on equity and shining spotlights on diverse artists during big events like the Indy 500.“It’s a classic car that they race with, and I do a lot of cosmic or spiritual art, so I wanted to manifest a woman being the winner,” Hall said. “Hopefully in the future we see a woman race car driver win.”

Hall says she’s grateful to have a project of this magnitude and to have the Indy 500 on her resume, especially as a woman of color. “I am seen, I am heard. I have made my stamp in this beautiful racing event that typically doesn’t have a lot of people of color,” she said. “I think it’s good for me to be exposed to different cultures and walks of life and for them to get a little taste of my culture and life.”For more information on the Indy Arts Council, click here.
