ART VILLAGE

""The Mission of The Art Village, Inc is to support the community through arts inspiration, exhibitions and outreach. The Board of Directors of The Art Village has set forth a broad Vision for the organization that includes: * To provide a supportive and inspiring environment for the creation of art and the support of artists of all ages and abilities. * To encourage a cultural and social gathering in the community. As a community-focused arts organization, we provide an opportunity for individuals to engage in creating and learning about art. Local and visiting artists exhibit a variety of media and techniques. Young artists gain exposure by displaying their work and learning about the business side of being an artist. The Art Village encourages art in the community by supporting Kentucky artists in various events. Such as Art in the Park where Kentucky artists showcase in a non-juried format and all forms of art and craft. Although our main goal is to support many different forms of art, we additionally encourage community involvement and participation. The Art Village sees art as an opportunity for various groups to work together for the benefit of the entire community.""
