Abound Credit Union Celebration of the Arts Award Ceremony to be held Friday, March 1

The Kentucky Museum invites our campus and community to the Awards Ceremony for the 2024 Abound Credit Union Celebration of the Arts on this Friday, March 1, from 6 to 8 pm. Showcasing over 200 works, this year's exhibition is truly a celebration of this region’s art. Generously sponsored by Abound Credit Union, any Kentucky resident over the age of 18 and living within 65 miles of Bowling Green was eligible to enter a piece of their original artwork created within the last two years.

At the Awards Ceremony, winners will be recognized in ten categories as well as for Best of Show, the Purchase Award, the Student Purchase Award, the World's Greatest Studio Tour Merit Award, and the Artworks Merit Award.
