art[squared] 2018
It's a wrap! Art [squared] 2018 was a big success, thanks to the hundreds of artists who donated original pieces to support Children's Fine Art Classes; the hundreds of attendees who saw and/or bought pieces; our staff, board members and volunteers who gave their time, energy and hard work; and everyone else who contributed to this essential fundraiser. Let's do it again next April!
Neighborhood House STEAM Lab Gets Powered!
When Google Fiber wanted to help the Neighborhood House create their STEAM Lab, Louisville Visual Art was invited to help local youth design and execute a mural to look over it! Today everything was completed and ready to be enjoyed, so neighbors and media members came to celebrate.
We're so thrilled with how great it all came together and say thanks to Google Fiber for their generous support, and to the Neighborhood House for being such a wonderful community center that is giving our neighbor kids so many ways to get involved, learn and have fun!

2017 Bourbon, Bets & Bow Ties Artwork Auction
Art Auction Alert!!!
Beautiful Bourbon Barrels!!!
Click here to make one of these unique pieces yours today: https://www.32auctions.com/LVA_Auction_2017
The online-only auction begins on Wednesday, November 15 at noon and ends on Friday, November 17 at 5 p.m.
"Downs After Dark - Bourbon, Bets & Bowties" was held at Churchill Downs on September 23. As a part of that event, 12 Louisville artists used authentic bourbon barrels culled from Kentucky distilleries to create original art! Some painted on them, some built images from thread and wire, and some deconstructed the barrels to fashion wholly unique sculptural forms.
The resulting 12 pieces are being offered for sale - an unusual opportunity for art collectors and bourbon enthusiasts! All proceeds will benefit Louisville Visual Art’s Children’s Fine Art Classes, which reach more than 5,500 students annually all over the Louisville Metro area and surrounding counties, including in Southern Indiana.
Participating artists included Bri Bowers, Adam Horton Art, Bobby Hinkel, Braylyn Resko Stewart, Ewa Perz, John King (DrunkWood), Wood & Twine, Ashleigh Anthony (Art From Ashes), Brandon Harder Art, David Nichols, Branden McClain (Slugger City Sign Company) & Mandi Caskey (Birdy), and Casey Mckinney.
