kentuck art center proudly presents the 2024 exhibition season

repurposed

Kentuck Art Center's 2024 exhibition season, titled “Repurposed,” lifts up women's voices in art and community through visual art exhibitions, music, and a series of speakers. Exhibitions at Kentuck's 3 galleries in Historic Downtown Northport will feature women artists who create innovative art with media that traditionally has been deemed, "women's work," or features themes surrounding the lived experience of women. Each month, Kentuck's free event, Art Night, will offer an opening reception for artists, artist talks, and live music by women vocalists and musicians. Women who have broken barriers in traditionally male-dominated fields and scholars who study the role of women in history will be invited speakers. Throughout the year, workshops and community outreach will incorporate themes of the current exhibition or feature women artists.
