Celebrate 40 years by investing in our future.
Paving the Path to a Creative Legacy
— Keep the Arts Alive —
Today, Tomorrow, Always
Your gift paves the way.
Brick by brick, art endures.
For 40 years, the Berea Arts Council has been a home for creativity, connection, and community.
To secure that future, we are building a permanent endowment.
How It Works
Those that donate at least $1,000 will have their name becomes a brick in Bob Burger’s watercolor mural— paving a path for artists, audiences, and future generations.
Together, these bricks form a path that represents the many hands and hearts sustaining Berea’s creative life.
Your brick is more than recognition— it’s a step toward keeping exhibitions, performances, and cultural programs alive while building our vibrant community.
A Lasting Impact
Your gift is invested in the BAC Endowment at the Blue Grass Community Foundation. The principal remains untouched; only the earnings support our programs.
Together, we’ll help create resilience, stability, and creativity in Berea—for today, tomorrow, and always.
