The continued growth and success of Artomobilia relies on a distinct balance of community support, automotive enthusiasts, and dedicated local corporate partners. Among those organizations, Hylant Insurance brings a unique, multigenerational perspective to its sponsorship of the annual celebration of automotive ingenuity and community.
Founded in 1935, Hylant has operated as an independent brokerage for 91 years, standing out in a rapidly consolidating industry. While many competitors have merged with larger national entities, Hylant remains family-owned and operated, with a team of established fourth- and upcoming fifth-generation family members carrying forward its founding legacy.
Hylant Chief Marketing Officer Bridget Scott noted that the partnership between the firm and Artomobilia extends beyond a shared interest in cars, rooted instead in a common commitment to long-term community investments and specialized expertise.
“When I think about Artomobilia and why Hylant is a good partner for that event, it’s really more than just about cars. It’s about community,” Scott said. “And that’s how we approach all of our relationships. We are a fourth-generation family-owned insurance brokerage firm. And we have 20 offices in eight states.”
Scott added that protecting high-value vehicles, businesses, and personal assets requires a level of care similar to the craftsmanship seen on display throughout the event.
“The people that support this event, they have a passion for those vehicles,” Scott said. “We have a passion for helping people protect the things that matter most to them, whether it’s a car, a collection of art, a house or a business, or the employees who work at their company.”
That hands-on approach translates directly into how the firm structures its services, particularly within the specialized automotive space.
“The folks that have these cars can’t call a typical insurance agency and say, ‘Hey, I’ve got a $500,000 Porsche. What do I do with it?’ It takes a little bit more of a strategic approach to insure those collections,” Dan Hylant said. “We kind of become an outsourced risk manager for protecting legacies and assets that hopefully last through generations.”
In addition to high-net-worth personal lines, Hylant maintains dedicated practice areas in employee benefits along with commercial property and casualty coverage, serving middle-market clients with a boutique, localized service model.
Having served the Indianapolis area for 20 years, Hylant employs approximately 85 local professionals with a goal of doubling that number over the next five to seven years. Hylant is relocating its local office to Midtown Carmel.
“It offers our employees an opportunity to work in a great community with a great environment and enjoy the amenities that Carmel has built,” Hylant said. “Hopefully, us bringing folks into town and driving business and consumerism is our way of paying it forward so the community can continue to build upon that.”
For Scott, the alignment between Hylant and Artomobilia comes down to supporting legacy and connection.
“I think the alignment is about celebrating people and relationships through vehicles and building those cherished legacies that last generations,” Scott said.
