Ann Klem is a glass artist who uses Kiln-forming and torch-working, but each piece begins with an idea or word, drawings, and design before the glass comes out. Multiple kiln firings with cold-working in between lead to the finished creation. Ann is currently a member of the LVA Board.

Justin Franklin Baldwin is an artist from Atlanta, GA, but he has lived and worked in Louisville, KY, for the last six years.

We’re thrilled to invite you to LVA’s 13th annual art[squared] online auction, showcasing 12" x 12" works from 30 local, established artists and 8" x 8" pieces from over 100 additional artists from across Louisville. It’s your chance to support local art while collecting original work!
