Stay Tuned for the 2024 Barrel of Heart Exhibit Dates!

an art exhibit like Louisville has never seen before

 Barrels of Heart was Louisville's first bourbon-barrel art exhibit.

The exhibit was displayed at the Frazier History Museum from February to April 2023 and featured 20 custom-painted bourbon barrels designed by local artists.


Each barrel artist brought their unique background to the exhibit - with artists ranging in age from 18 to 65, diverse ethnicities, varying levels of experience from award-winning professionals to hobbyists, and artists with disabilities.


During the eight-week exhibit, the public had the opportunity to vote for their favorite custom-painted barrel. The winning artist was awarded a cash prize and a donation to the charity of their choice.


All proceeds were used to raise awareness surrounding the local art community, providing better access to first-class arts experiences regardless of age, race, class, gender, or ability - and raising funds for other local non-profits.


Thank you to all the sponsors who helped us raise a total of $63,000!
