Lifts for Artists
Supporting Visual and Performing Artists through Affordable Construction Equipment Rentals
Lifts for Artists, created by IronTek Solutions, was designed to provide artists with affordable equipment rentals that are needed for the installation of art projects.
The program allows visual and performing artists, and the organizations that hire them to receive deeply discounted rental rates during the production of local art.
From murals and sculptures to local music and theater events, IronTek supports the arts throughout communities across the nation.
The program is designed to give local artists exposure to new audiences, and to inspire business owners and communities to engage with artists to create new art in their neighborhoods. IronTek promotes each artist’s work and the concept behind the work to its site visitors and contacts. As a result, people are inspired by and exposed to art that they may not otherwise be aware of, and it gives artists the opportunity to tell a story about their creations to new crowds.

Featured Rental Yard & Project:
OHR Rents joined IronTek Solutions’ Lifts for Artists, and connected with Cleveland-based artist, Michael McNamara (“Mac”), to provide discounted rental equipment during the painting of a Frida Kahlo mural.
OHR Rents provided Mac with a Skyjack SJ7135RT rough terrain scissor lift. The lift was rented at a discounted rate for one month; however, Mac was able to finish the job in only 7 days. Barrio was able to transport the lift to another location, and continue to use it for another project for the duration of the rental period.
