CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – Two of Campbellsville University’s Art & Design students, Dalton Bennett, a junior of Campbellsville and Madison Daulton, a senior of Somerset, Ky., were accepted into a group exhibition titled “The Next Generation” at Kaviar Gallery in Louisville, Ky.

Only 24 artists from 14 high school and college students in Kentucky were accepted. Opening reception will be Friday, March 31 from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. coinciding with the Louisville’s FAT Friday Trolley Hop on Frankfort Avenue.
