Arts for All Kentucky and the Murray Art Guild are pleased to announce that we are now accepting registration for your child to participate in the SIDE BY SIDE program. This fall, Arts for All Kentucky (artsforallky.org) and the Murray Art Guild will be offering Side By Side. SIDE BY SIDE is designed to make available creative opportunities to students, reinforce inclusiveness and positive self-image, and highlight the importance of visual arts education to the development of our young people with disabilities.

Following the 4 studios, your child(ren) will have the opportunity to create artwork alongside a local artist on a collaborative artwork.
