Mary Norton Shands, Chairman Emeritus, founder of the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft and a longtime civic leader, died Saturday August 15th, at her  Crestwood home, surrounded by the art and craft that so thoroughly enriched her life.

 

The members of the art and craft community of Kentucky are greatly saddened at her passing but ever grateful for her wisdom, foresight and passion in support of the artists of the state. (More..)

The Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft is a nonprofit organization founded in 1981 to promote and support art and craft excellence in Kentucky. In 2006, KMAC celebrated 25 years of supporting artists and providing educational programs to school children and adults. The Museum is supported in part by the Fund for the Arts and Kentucky Arts Council, a state agency of the Commerce Cabinet.

Each year, programs benefit over 90,000 children and adults from Louisville and beyond. We have had visitors from every state and six continents.

The Education Center also provides special needs workshops, summer art camps, community center programs, school partnership workshops, Girl Scout workshops, child, teen and adult workshops, and craft artist demonstrations.

The Gallery Shop features the work of approximately 200 artists at any one time, offering work in all media from folk art to furniture. The Gallery Shop offers corporate gift sales and free gift-wrapping, will work with artists and clients on commissions, and will ship to all corners of the globe.

The Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft hosts two major fundraisers a year, the Bourbon Ball in October and the Oaks Brunch on the morning of the eve of the Kentucky Derby. These events benefit  the KMAC educational and exhibition programming.

Come and join us in supporting the great artists of Kentucky and the region!
