From Michael Maupin
Louisville is a treasure for members of the arts community. From places where the eclectic gather, like Bardstown Road, or to inspiring places like Cherokee Park where your thoughts can waft like a warm summer breeze, or even to premiere educational facilities like UofL, Spaulding, and IU Southeast just across the river, Kentuckiana is a place where you can be who you want with people who understand your desire to grow.
