AAEA Spring Invitational opens April 18
The American Academy of Equine Art Spring Invitational show and sale will be on display from April 18 through May 30 at the fabulous Spindletop Hall, Lexington, Kentucky. The opening reception is Friday, April 18 from 6:00-8:00 p.m, and all are invited. The exhibition will consist of approximately 50 paintings and sculptures highlighting Bluegrass equines and happenings in the local area during the show, such as the Rolex Three Day Event at the Kentucky Horse Park, Kentucky Derby in Louisville and The Spring Thoroughbred racing season at Keeneland. 
According to AAEA president Ed Bowen: “This is the third time that Spindletop Hall has hosted this show, and we are so pleased. It is a marvelous venue, rich in history and perfectly showcases our artists’ fine work. It is unique in that unlike the usual gallery setting it offers the opportunity for pieces to be displayed as in a fine home enabling the viewer to picture the art perhaps on their own wall.”
Spindletop Hall is open Tuesday through Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. For additional information call (859) 255-2777 or visit http://spindletophall.org/.
