The Gaines Center for the Humanities
Director: Dr. Melynda Price
Founded in 1984 by a generous gift from John R. and Joan B. Gaines, the Gaines Center for the Humanities functions as a laboratory for imaginative and innovative education on the University of Kentucky campus. Devoted to cultivating an appreciation of the humanities in its students and faculty, the Center embraces varied paths of knowledge and particularly strives to integrate creative work with traditional academic learning.
