Kentucky Creative Arts Club

The Results from Art in the Park

The Kentucky Creative Arts Club hosted their 49^th Annual Art in the Park Saturday, September 27, 2008. With early threats of rain, the club had faith the day would turn into a beautiful day and it certainly was.

The sun came out as the artists did as well. There were over 300 pieces of a large variety of art from some of the most talented artists in this area. The public came and got to meet the artists and discuss their mutual love of art.

They were pleased that students from Paul Blazer, Russell and Raceland High Schools came and Francis Friday won the People’s Choice Award which was decided by the number of votes the public cast. Another Student Alejandro Smal was chosen for a purchase award for Kentucky Farmers Bank.

The Judge, Cathy Vigor, had a very difficult task of deciding which paintings to give the ribbons and cash prizes to. She would have given everybody one if she could have, but in the end she had to choose 5 out of each category, 1^st, 2^nd, 3, Honorable Mentions and finally Best of Category.

We would also like to thank all of our sponsors who contributed cash, purchase awards and door prizes, the show would have not been possible without them. We truly appreciate their support of the arts in this community.

Look for the Tee Shirts

If you need help or information while at this year’s Art in the Park, just look for someone wearing a tee shirt with the same design as the front of the brochure.
The members of the Kentucky Creative Arts Club will be happy to help you in any way they can. We hope to facilitate this process by making ourselves easily recognizable in these shirts.
Bring your lawn chairs and plan to spend the day enjoying some art, some friendly conversation, and (we hope) beautiful weather.

Sponsors Appreciated

On September 27^th 2008 the Kentucky Creative Arts Club, will be holding its annual Arts in Central Park Competition and Show. This will be the 49th annual event which the club has put on for the community.

We do this in order to introduce the community to the visual arts created by local artists in the tri-state area (High School Students are included in this venue at no cost to them). Due to the high cost of putting on this show we are reaching out to you in the hope that you or your organization will help sponsor door prizes, or purchase awards so that the show might be a success.

Purchase awards range in price from $50.00 to $500.00. We will of course be pleased with whatever donation your organization deems appropriate. And you will be given recognition for your donation during our event in the park. The club established in 1959, is most anxious that this event survive for another 49years. This year’s special category is scenes of Ashland’s Central Park.
If you would like to be a sponsor, please email us kentuckycreativeartsclub@yahoo.com

Thanking you for your continued support of the local arts club and its members.
