The Kentucky Crafted Market

Take a break from Market shopping to enjoy our Hands-On Activities Area

In addition to seeing artwork from the finest visual and craft artists in Kentucky, visitors to The Kentucky Crafted Market, March 11-12 at the Kentucky Horse Park’s Alltech Arena, can take part in several hands-on activities, presented by Kentucky arts organizations.

Arts for All Kentucky
Arts for All Kentucky provides arts and education programs that allow people with disabilities to fully participate in the arts.
Join Arts for All Kentucky in the Hands-On Activities area to try painting with rollers. This is a fun and easy painting application to heavy paper or canvas boards. Participants can take away their own colorful, abstract design. The group will also be working on collaborative paintings that will become an exhibit in Arts for All Kentucky’s “Art on Tour” program that will travel to galleries, libraries and businesses statewide.
