CARE at ASH

04/13/2026

The walls of Arthur Street Hotel are now alive with purpose.

We're incredibly grateful to Louisville Visual Art (LVA) for bringing a permanent exhibition to Arthur Street Hotel — a collection that lives on our walls as a daily reminder that this community shows up for one another.

This installation is more than art. It's a celebration of mutual aid, a tribute to our residents, and a testament to what happens when people choose to give, create, and care together.

To every artist who contributed their work — thank you for seeing our residents and choosing to share your gifts with them. To everyone who came out to celebrate with us, your presence meant everything.

Art belongs everywhere. And now, it lives here. 🎨

What happens when businesses step into the conversation about homelessness?

Real solutions. Real impact. Real change.

Our Executive Director recently moderated a panel discussion right here in Louisville, exploring how the business community can help address homelessnessand why getting involved benefits everyone.

This wasn’t just a conversation. It was a call to action.

If you weren’t able to attend, you can catch the full recap here: https://bit.ly/3OlLKUk

We encourage our partners, neighbors, and local businesses to tune in and learn how you can help move the needle in our city.

🧦 THANK YOU, BOMBAS 🧦

When temperatures drop below zero, something as simple as a pair of socks can make a meaningful difference.

As part of its mission, Bombas donates one pair of socks for every pair purchased. Thanks to that commitment, hundreds of pairs are now leaving Arthur Street and helping keep community members warm during extreme winter conditions.

Socks are often overlooked — until a subzero day arrives without them. Warm, dry feet matter. Comfort matters. Dignity matters.

We are grateful to Bombas for supporting our community when it matters most, and to University of Louisville Sustainability for helping make this donation possible.

Because warmth saves lives.

Join the conversation and be part of the solution.

We invite you to a panel discussion with our Executive Director Susan Buchino that will examine homelessness through an economic lens, exploring how businesses, community leaders and local partners play a critical role in addressing today’s crisis through meaningful, long-term investment.

Reducing homelessness strengthens individuals, stabilizes communities and makes economic sense. Prevention efforts and housing investments are not only the right thing to do, they are practical, cost-effective solutions that benefit us all.

Attend, listen and engage. Your voice and involvement matter as we work toward sustainable solutions together.
