A VISION FOR A BETTER KENTUCKY

The 2021 Art of Goodwill event will expand beyond its original purpose of showcasing Kentucky artists who create works of art using donated materials from Goodwill stores. 

As a new feature to the annual event, the Art of Goodwill will honor legendary artist Ed Hamilton with Goodwill’s very first “Hand Up Award,” which recognizes the work of a Kentuckian who has demonstrated a significant level of excellence and effort in a field that improves the lives and culture of people throughout Kentucky.

The four artists selected for the 2021 Art of Goodwill artist residency were hand-selected by Ed Hamilton to continue the annual tradition of showcasing a versatile display of creative works that will be auctioned off at the event to support Goodwill’s mission.
