Free & Open to the public!K.T.Ho is a Vietnamese-American, self-taught mixed-media artist and practicing rheumatologist based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Her work has been exhibited in New Orleans, Houston, Biloxi, and West Palm Beach, earning prizes in the latter two cities. In 2024, she was appointed to the Board of Directors of Baton Rouge Gallery. In 2023, she founded the ArtLean Scholarship Program at the Louisiana Arts and Science Museum to fund studio art fees for emerging artists.
Since immigrating to the United States in 1988, Ho has lived throughout the South — Oklahoma, Mississippi, Florida, and Texas — and has called Baton Rouge home since 1999.
A portion of exhibition proceeds — one third — will be donated to Trường Trung-Học Thủ-Đức Gia-Định, the school in Vietnam where the artist’s father taught French before the family fled. Ho plans to visit the school on Bastille Day weekend 2026.
