“We are celebrating the 25th Anniversary by introducing three new features,” stated Jim Clark, President & CEO. “LexArts partnered with UK and Kentucky Museum Without Walls Project to create a Hop Mobile App built upon the TakeItArtside infrastructure designed by UK students. The app is available free to the public on iPhone and Android smartphones and will provide exhibit details and GPS navigation between sites. In addition, we commissioned local artist Yoshika Azuma to create a series of limited-edition collector lapel buttons that will be available free to hop patrons while supplies last. And we invited the Lexington Youth Arts Council to staff a Hop information kiosk at the Downtown Arts Center. The kiosk is a great resource for gallery exhibit listings, official Gallery Hop guides and the Hop Mobile App.”



Because there is so much to see and experience, LexArts created a Hop brochure and website to help participants create their own individualized Gallery Hop experience. Be sure to visit our website the week of Gallery Hop to find up-to-date information on exhibits and other special events associated with the Hop at www.GalleryHopLex.com.
