LET’S ART WITH LEXARTS
How do you art?
The arts are everywhere in Lexington—and everyone is an artist in their own way. You don’t have to paint a mural or perform onstage to be part of our creative community. If you hum along to your favorite song, applaud at a school play, snap photos on a walk downtown, or enjoy the murals that brighten our city—you’re already engaging with the arts.
This year, we’re celebrating all the ways people “art,” from the everyday moments to the extraordinary ones. And we want to hear from you.
Your Gift Powers the Arts in Lexington
When you support the Fund for the Arts, you’re fueling a city where creativity is accessible to everyone. Your donation helps LexArts provide critical grants to more than 50 Fayette County artists and arts organizations each year. These grants fund:
- Performances that bring our community together
- Exhibitions that inspire new ideas
- Arts education programs that spark young imaginations
- Festivals, workshops, and public art that make Lexington vibrant
Your support keeps the arts alive—for students, families, visitors, and future generations.
Share Your Art.
We’re asking Lexington one simple question: How do you art?
Maybe you doodle in the margins. Maybe your kids dance around the living room. Maybe you attend gallery openings, host open mic nights, or keep local theater tickets pinned to your fridge.
Whatever your “art” is, we want to see it.
Share your photos, videos, and stories using #LetsArtWithLexArts or email Anthony@LexArts.org!
