Outrunning Autism 5K Run/Walk
This weekend, hundreds of people will crowd around Westport Village in an effort to fight a disorder that is estimated to affect one in 110 children.
Pandora Productions
Last Thursday, I attended the opening of “A Man of No Importance,” by Pandora Productions. What I had thought was a simple story of love, friendship and learning to accept one’s identity turned out to have quite an unexpected twist.
732 Social
The First Friday Trolley Hop came just in time to celebrate the start of the Labor Day Weekend last Friday. And, while ideally I would have jet-setted to New York for a few days, I decided to stay in Louisville and visit 732 Social to taste some of the delicious food and experience an atmosphere surprisingly quite similar to NYC.
Salsa dancing at SkyBar
It almost sounds like a scene from “Dirty Dancing” – couples lined up, dressed up for the evening, the lights dimmed low and a dance instructor leading the flow of traffic as men and women sway their hips and do a few twists of the salsa.
Best Dressed: After The Show
The party has only begun once Best Dressed of Louisville Presented by Churchill Downs comes to an end on Saturday night. After experiencing the high-energy of The Voice-Tribune’s biggest event of the year, you’ll be ready to hit the town in your stylish suits and stunning dresses.
Falling Rock Park
I guarantee you haven’t seen billboards or advertisements attempting to lure you in to Falling Rock Park, but chances are you or someone you know has heard of the hangout that’s become one of this year’s hot spots for swimming.
St. Gabriel Picnic
Years ago when I was a student at St. Albert grade school, church picnics were all I looked forward to once school let out for the summer. I’ll be honest, around the age of 12, I only went to summer picnics to socialize with friends while checking out my grade school crushes, but, as I’ve grown up a little since then, I’ve found that summer picnics aren’t just about shamelessly flirting with the cute boy in school.
Falls of the Ohio
It took 390 million years to transform the Falls of the Ohio into hundreds of acres of land filled with water, wildlife and captivating fossil beds. And in just two short years, the falls will experience another significant change inside its Interpretive Center that has welcomed school field trips and visitors from 93 countries over the last 18 years.
Garage Bar
Since opening last week, Garage Bar has become one of the hottest spots to eat in Louisville. The restaurant, opened by chef Michael Paley and 21c Museum Hotels, offers a variety of artisan pizzas, country ham, fresh-shucked oysters and Southern-inspired snacks and house specialties.
