Garden
& Gun just gave Owensboro national attention, naming it one of the South’s
best music towns. The article was written by Silas House, Kentucky’s former
Poet Laureate, which makes the recognition even stronger.
Silas
House highlighted what makes Owensboro stand out: Friday After 5, ROMP
Festival, the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame and Museum, barbecue, bourbon,
downtown music, and the Ohio River.
“Garden
& Gun’s national spotlight, paired with a writer of Silas House’s caliber,
is a major win for Owensboro,” said Mark Calitri, President and CEO of Visit
Owensboro. “It shows our music, food, bourbon, bluegrass, and riverfront story
are getting noticed on a much bigger stage.”
This
is exactly the kind of recognition that helps drive tourism and puts Owensboro
in front of more travelers.
