About This Event

Art for Arthur Street is a permanent installation of artworks at Arthur Street Hotel, a local hotel-style transitional housing service for individuals experiencing homelessness. Curated by Curate, Purchase, Inspire (CPI) Fellow Hannah Dewitt in partnership with Louisville Visual Art, the project cultivates a positive environment of artistic stimulation — offering residents moments of reflection, recognition, and warmth within their daily surroundings.
The works are connected through the principle of mutual aid — the practice of people supporting one another through community-led systems of care — emphasizing connection, dignity, and person-to-person solidarity.

About LVA's Curate, Purchase, Inspire (CPI) Program

In spring 2022 Louisville Visual Art (LVA) initiated a new program to support Louisville’s artists, curators, and organizations by placing original art in accessible spaces at local non-profits. Curate Purchase Inspire (CPI) is an exciting opportunity to support the city’s entire visual arts ecosystem and is made possible by a generous $1 Million gift from local artist and philanthropist, Clare Hirn. The first year's exhibits were a great success and Louisville Visual Art (LVA) is excited that for 2024 we have selected two individuals for the 3rd cohort: Lindsey Cummins and Anne Borders. Look for updates on their projects as they develop.
