Through my upper-level museum studies course in the UK Department of Art, eleven students secured funding from the Blue Grass Community Foundation's Legacy Center and LexArts, then issued a national call for a master planner. Phase one brought trail markers, surface paintings and crossings by local and regional artists. Three lead students went on to Commonwealth Collaborative internships to carry the plan forward.
