Community Activities

I would like to expound on Jonathan Cottle's previous post. Below are some of the ideas that the Community Activities group came up with during last Thursdays meeting (some ideas would utilize Old Mill Park):

Cafe/gathering place for everyone!
Performing arts --> Local theater (plays about Eastern KY)
Open Mic Nights
Readings (poetry, storytelling, etc.)
Old Movies
Small Business Fair
Craft Fair

Short term goals:
Concerts
Special Events
Plays (start auditions)


Hopefully we can get these ideas to become a reality. I love the idea of showing old movies in the park, which is a big success in Lexington. I am also excited about concerts in the park. I like Bluegrass music, but there needs to be other types of music showcased as well. I also believe that a local theater is important because our children as well as our older citizens should be exposed to such art forms. It will also give our citizens, who are talented in this area, an outlet to perfect their craft.
