Kentuck Art Center is honored to invite you to the public debut of The Edward Guy Collection: A Major Gift to Kentuck Art Center. Edward has been an invaluable part of Kentuck for over 20 years—serving as a board member, volunteer, dedicated supporter, and friend. His incredible art collection was built with the decades-long hope that Kentuck would one day have the perfect space to showcase it, and with our expansion to Kentuck at Queen City, that time has finally come. Edward has generously donated over 60 pieces of artwork, preserving the rich history of Kentuck Art Center & Festival and its artists. Please join us in celebrating Edward’s remarkable contribution and this exciting new chapter for Kentuck.
