Get Social With Us

Amy Le Ann Richardson

2024 Art Meets Activism | (Olive Hill) $7,000 to host writing workshops across Eastern Kentucky and invite self-identified mountain women farmers and gardeners to share their stories. The writing will celebrate the resilient women who have carried the work of foodways across generations and the voices of women who moved to the mountains to get their hands in the dirt.  

Previous Grants

2021 Artist Enrichment | (Olive Hill) $5,000 to write a book of poetry centered on the connections between Appalachian mothers and their children and the land. This book will illustrate the importance of both women and nature in Appalachia and the ecologies cultivated by maternal bloodlines, all of which are often overshadowed, ignored, or even blatantly mocked.
