Founded in 1981, the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft was started as a way to build interest in the state’s rich craft heritage, which lead to a collection of American Folk Art from the region. The Museum explores the relationship between art and craft by identifying art as big ideas and craft as the intersection between process, materials and labor. Their goal is to educate and inspire while promoting a better understanding of art and craft through exhibitions, collaborations, outreach and the permanent collection. Offering exciting public events each month, KMAC encourages rich conversation amongst Louisville’s thriving and creative community.
