Reception: May 27, 2009, 5pm

21c Museum
presents an exhibition of proposals by the University of Kentucky College of Design for future projects and development for the Shippingport area of Louisville.

The College of Design focused on this area of west Louisville because it presents a potential for economic expansion. These proposals range from vocational schools, a culinary school with adjoining restaurant, a centralized hospitality complex serviced by light rail, networks of pocket parks that connect to the existing Olmstead Park system, to a Green Ford Motor Company campus where hybrid and electric products would be designed, developed, and constructed.

For the dates of May 25 – June 8, a large model will be displayed in the atrium gallery along with video presentations of the proposal studies. On May 27th at 5pm, a reception will be held in Atrium gallery with the graduate students and distinguished guests.

California Guitar Trio Makes a Special Appearance at the 21c Museum in Louisville, KY.

The internationally acclaimed California Guitar Trio comes to the 21c Museum for a special performance of stunning guitar talent. Fusing styles of classical, rock, blues, jazz, world music, progressive, as well as the quintessential California musical genre surf music, the eclectic Trio has toured extensively both nationally and internationally. The members of the Trio first met in England at one of Robert Fripp's Guitar Craft Courses in 1987 and toured together with Fripp's League of Crafty Guitarists. Not wishing to disband after the League had run its course, the CGT officially formed in Los Angeles in 1991, honing their intricate original compositions and classical re-workings. To date, the CGT has shared the stage with musicians such as King Crimson, Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, John McLaughlin, John Scofield, Tito Puente, Taj Mahal among many others and has been featured at every Olympic Games from 1998 to 2004. More information, as well as streaming audio, is available at the California Guitar Trio's website. www.cgtrio.com

Please join us for a wonderful evening of music and visual art! OVCE has made some tremendous progress, and we are very close to kicking-off our $5 million dollar capital campaign. You can grab a sneak peak of the OVCE Art Center architectural design, created by (fer) studios, and funded by grants recieved from the National Endowment for the Arts and The Caesar's Foundation of Floyd County.

Warmest Regards,
