RCPL is honored to host “Continent to Commonwealth”. This art exhibit is in partnership with the Kentucky Arts Council, Asia Institute-Crane House and the Kentucky Chinese American Association. Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Kentuckians were invited to to share their visual art. Dozens of artists answered the call, with ethnic identities including Korean, Filipino, Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese, Indian, Vietnamese and Karen, an ethnic group connected with the land now known as Myanmar, formerly Burma. A panel of Asian and Asian American cultural specialists selected artworks to include in this exhibit, which they named Continent to Commonwealth.

Art is on display throughout the Library and able to be viewed during open hours.
