This year’s juror is Joey Yates, the curator for KMAC Museum. Yates joined KMAC in 2012. The museum focuses on the relationship between contemporary, folk and traditional craft art. He recently curated Simone Leigh’s solo exhibition Crop Rotation and was co-curator for White Glove Test: Louisville Punk Rock Flyers 1978-1994.
The Mazin Annual Art exhibition was conceived and created by Bernice and Benjamin Mazin in partnership with the Jewish Community Center’s Visual Art Committee.
“In 1999, our mother established the Benjamin and Bernice Mazin Visual Arts Second Century Fund. The fund was endowed because of her love for the arts and her desire to give local artists, new and experienced, a venue for exhibiting their work,” said Judy Hummel.
An entry form and prospectus can be found online at www.jewishlouisville.org/mazin.
