LowerTown Festival Keeps It Local

Close to twelve thousand people visited the LowerTown Arts and Music Festival in Paducah this past weekend. For seven years, representatives from the city have been lead organizers. This year, the local artists in LowerTown took control, promising a festival that focused on regional artists, food, and music. Organizers hoped the regional focus would keep the money generated from the festival in the region too. Angela Hatton visited LowerTown to see how that plan turned out.
