2026 Art Meets Activism | (Versailles) $3,800 to collaborate on a film that highlights five women farm owners from Elm Bend, Kentucky, from 1790 to the present. The film will dive into ownership, inheritance, racial division and alliance as a model for how these discussions can create a new social landscape. Building on their website, a tool of social engagement, the film demonstrates how these women were each, in their own way, an agent of social change. These stories will inspire by example and model a conversation between landowners and descendants to redefine the traditional idea of “Home Place.”
