Membership and Donation

The Lexington Art League creates opportunities for Lexington area artists and those who appreciate their work. We do this by presenting an engaging and diverse exhibition program, sponsoring public events, providing arts education, and creating productive partnerships with other individuals and organizations.

Sponsors
Sponsoring the Lexington Art League aligns your brand with one of the oldest, most celebrated cultural institutions in Lexington and our impactful work within the community.  Each sponsorship is tailored to your company’s vision while offering unique experiential benefits and a significant presence among the Lexington Art League's captive audience. 

Volunteer
Volunteers at Lexington Art League help bring what we do to life - just as they have for nearly six decades!  Your time is precious, your experience valuable, and your commitment to our mission unparalleled.  We are always looking for support with our largest annual event, the Woodland Art Fair.

Advocate for the Arts
The FY26 federal budget request released by the White House on May 2 (pg. 40) called for the elimination of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and other cultural agencies with some NEA grantees in Kentucky receiving notifications that their awards had been terminated or withdrawn from consideration.

Additionally, the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (H.R. 1), which has passed the House in a 215-214 vote and will be considered by the Senate with a final passage reportedly expected for July 4, increases taxes on foundations and nonprofits and disincentivizes charitable giving. By diverting scarce resources away from nonprofits and their missions, the bill will harm those of us who rely on the services provided by nonprofits in our communities.
