This weekend offers a handful of Kentucky Derby Festival events to attend, plus a chance to appreciate artful fashion, salute those who do great work for seniors, eat some tacos, bid on a fabulous Derby hat, and give back to our community.
See below for all of the fun:
- Tonight mix, mingle and enjoy bourbon specialty drinks at the newest Kentucky Derby Festival event, BourbonVille. Taste signature drinks from Kentucky’s Bourbon distilleries, enjoy Bourbon-inspired cuisine, and meet the master distillers.
