‘Foals of Hope’ with UK Arts in Healthcare

FOALS OF HOPE: UK Arts in Healthcare
July 8, 2010 – July 15, 2010
Opening Reception: July 8 | 6 – 9 PM

Institute 193 and UK Arts in Healthcare are pleased to present Foals of Hope, a collaborative exhibition featuring horses designed by Latitude Artist Community, Kreative Catz and the UK Art Education Department. LexArts and Horsemania 2010 graciously donated three reclining foals to benefit the Kentucky Children’s Hospital. The foals were given to various groups in Lexington who have used them to express their vision of hope for the future. The foals will be auctioned at Horsemania 2010 with all proceeds benefitting the UK Children’s Hospital. The foals will be on display at Institute 193 from July 8 – 15. For more information about UK Arts in Healthcare, please see: www.ukhealthcare.uky.edu.

Latitude Artist Community is geared towards helping people with disabilities. The community uses art to give people living with disabilities a means of expression and direction that raises their quality of life.

Kreative Catz is a volunteer group of UK fine art students who work directly with Kentucky Children’s Hospital patients on creative projects as part of the Child Life Program.

We are posting pictures of the foals “in progress” on our blog. Call it a sneak peek.
