Alumni Events & Networking
One of the greatest perks of being a GSA alumnus is that you are connected to thousands of other talented, creative individuals who are out in the world doing amazing things! Use this page to keep up with your fellow alumni’s accomplishments, share useful resources/information, spread the word about your latest project, or to find collaborators within the GSA alumni base!
Whether it’s a call for actors, an announcement about an exhibition/performance, or a link to a great grantwriting resource for artists, email us your contributions to this page at gsainfo@kentuckycenter.org. Simply include any logistical information and a two to three sentence description of what you’d like to post. Keep in mind that the idea is to share relevant information for or about your GSA family!
