18 Art Holes! is an Official Affiliated event to the Cup Experience
18 fully functional mini golf courses designed and created by local artists


We would like to inform you about  an exciting art project, “18 Art Holes”.  Artists, architects, engineers, boy scouts, teachers, etc. were invited to create 18 fully functioning and unusual putt putt courses that will be open to the public for entertainment.  This project is a perfect way of initiating contact between the public at large with art through an interactive relationship.

The exhibition is hosted by the Mellwood Art Center in partnership with the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft during the months of August through October.   “18 Art Holes” will coincide with The Ryder Cup, which comes to Louisville, Kentucky September 16-21 bringing thousands of world wide golf enthusiasts to town.
