LowerTown Arts District
LowerTown artists love living and creating art among other artists. They also love visitors to their galleries and studios! The streets are lined with beautiful Victorian homes and renovated storefronts, now housing creative space. No where else will you find such a collection of creativity in one neighborhood.
Visit one of 20 studios and galleries for a first-hand look at how artists create art. A great time to visit the LowerTown Arts District is on the second Saturday of the month. The Second Saturday Gallery Walk is an event where galleries and studios host extended hours from noon to 8 p.m. Plan your trip before you visit to make sure you are able to catch the artists in their studios doing printmaking, painting, pottery, metalsmithing, and a variety of other artistic disciplines. For more information on visiting the artists please call the Paducah Renaissance Alliance at 270.444.8649. Please pick up a visitors' map at the Convention and Visitors Bureau, located at 128 Broadway, in historic downtown Paducah.
Artists in Residence
There is a collaberative spirit and a true sense of community in the LowerTown Arts District. The artists frequently seek out opportunties to grow themselves artistically. One way that they continue to breath new life into Paducah's art scene is through the Artist in Residence program. The program is sponsored by the Paducah Renaissance Alliance and the Paducah Arts Alliance.
Artists from across the world have come to Paducah's LowerTown Arts District through this program, teaching workshops for artists, leading discussions on the creation of art to non-artists, and sometimes working on collaberative projects with the LowerTown artists. For more information on the program go to www.paducahartsalliance.com.
