Art Market to be held at Kentucky Museum this Saturday

The Kentucky Museum, in partnership with The Mystic Arts Association, invites our campus and community to experience the Uniquely You Exhibition & Art Market on August 5 from 12 to 6pm.

The indoor market features 16 local artists, including members of The Mystical Arts Association (TMAA), which explores unique and alternative arts in a safe and inclusive space. Artists will be selling their wares, similar to its precursor, the Mystic Arts Faire. The market also invites visitors to discover our region's hidden community of magic and spiritual entrepreneurs. Food trucks will also be in attendance.

The market is accompanied by the Uniquely You exhibition, showcasing the works of local artists that include both traditional and non-traditional mediums, inviting viewers to consider the roots of artistic practice and the boundlessness of human creativity. The exhibition - and all other Kentucky Museum galleries - will be open to the public during the market. 

More information is available on the event's Facebook page.
 
The event is FREE and family-friendly, with ample parking available in the Museum and WKU parking lots along Kentucky Street. Look for signs that say "Event Parking." 
 
Come stroll the Kentucky Museum's galleries and experience the creative and mystical energies of South Central Kentucky!
