Fund for the Arts will host performing artists and arts organizations at the Republic Bank Performance Village as part of St. James Court Art Show (October 3 – 5) in Old Louisville. This local performance village brings just a sampling of Louisville’s vibrant performing arts community to the beloved visual arts and craft fair, regularly attended by thousands of locals and tourists alike.
Now in its fourth year, this performance village has helped introduce local performing artists and arts groups to new audiences, and to the Fund. Several performers have since become partners and grant recipients for other opportunities. The St. James Court Art Show regularly sees over 200,000 guests and was recently named #1 “Best Fine Art and Design Show” by Sunshine Artist magazine. This performance village is presented by Republic Bank.

“We are so grateful to be welcomed to this monumental arts event for our city by the St. James Court Art Show team and that Republic Bank have once again stepped up to bring this opportunity to life,” said Andre Kimo Stone Guess, Fund for the Arts President and CEO. “St. James Court Art Show brings incredible visual artists from near and far, and we’re excited to partner with them to highlight the talent in the performing arts community right here in Louisville and Southern Indiana. These artists make this a vibrant place to live and work, and we are thrilled to get them in front of new, art-loving audiences.”
