JURIED FINE ARTS & CRAFTS ART SHOW

The Guild sponsors and promotes an annual “Fine Arts & Crafts Showcase" for its juried members the first Saturday and Sunday of November. The popular fair has been successful in providing an opportunity for our members to exhibit and sell their work to the community. In addition to the booths the Guild conducts a public raffle of artwork created by Guild members with proceeds going to the Scholarship Fund.

 ANNUAL EXHIBIT AT A LOCAL GALLERY

Since 1973 we host an Annual Exhibit show open to all active members of the Louisville Artisans Guild, both juried and non-juried. This exhibit allows our members to show off their best work in a local gallery for a month. Members keep 100% of the sale. The show is open to the public and cash prizes are awarded in several categories. An outside judge reviews and selects all work submitted for the show.

VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION PARTY

In late winter we host a party to say thanks to everyone who has helped make another year great.
