Frequently Asked Questions
ArtHouse Kentucky is dedicated to helping artisans, designers, makers and other creative entrepreneurs in Kentucky gain exposure and sell their work and we are always looking to represent the work of emerging as well as experienced artists.
Because we are committed to offering high quality Kentucky-made items to our shoppers, every artist must go through a jurying process. Artists who have already been juried by recognized Kentucky art programs such as the Kentucky Arts Council, the Kentucky Guild of Artists and Craftsmen or other local or regional art councils' programs are automatically juried with ArtHouse Kentucky. Those who have not been juried by such organizations may still apply directly to ArtHouse Kentucky. In that case, the artists’ work will undergo evaluation via a stringent jurying process. Those whose work demonstrates a high level of creativity, craftsmanship, beauty, and integrity will be invited to have their work represented by ArtHouse Kentucky.
