Submit art now for next rotation in State Capitol exhibit By Crystal Staley/Lindsay Bloom Frankfort, KY - Gov. Andy Beshear and First Lady Britainy Beshear invite Kentuckians to lend their artistic talents to the Team Kentucky Gallery, which is located in two main halls of the state Capitol in Frankfort. The Beshears believe there is no better place than the Capitol to highlight Kentuckians' voices as represented through art. "As we begin to put the pandemic behind us and more of our people visit the Capitol, they are able to see their stories and their communities represented through the amazing art of their fellow Kentuckians," said Gov. Beshear. "Every day, as I walk the halls of this building, I am inspired by the spirit of Kentucky that these artworks have captured." Selected artworks will be displayed for a six-month rotation in the Capitol and on the Team Kentucky Digital Art Gallery, where the artists can provide additional information. After each rotation, artworks are returned to the artists. The current, inaugural rotation runs until Dec. 31, 2021. The second rotation will begin Jan. 1 and run until June 30, 2022. The deadline to submit artwork for consideration for the second rotation is Nov. 29, 2021. Artworks will be selected by the second week of December, and artists will be notified shortly thereafter. "I have seen the transformative power of art and witnessed how it has helped so many young people to reflect and to heal," said First Lady Beshear. "But art helps all of us - young and old alike. Whether it's creating it or viewing it, art is a powerful tool to help us see the beauty in our world and in each other." The First Lady has long supported Kentucky artists and created the Hope Gallery when Gov. Beshear served as attorney general. The Hope Gallery gave voice to Kentucky children facing adversity and promoted art therapy programs in the commonwealth. Art Submission Requirements
