Arts & Culture

Paducah's creative community inspires, educates and fosters connection through the arts. In the spirit of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network, Paducah venues spotlight local creators and welcome the world to share culture and craft through exhibitions, workshops and performances.

The Yeiser Art Center, Maiden Alley Cinema and Gallery, Market House Theatre, Clemens Fine Art Center and The Carson Center facilitate Paducah's rich diversity of ongoing cultural offerings from live theatre, to exhibitions, art films, and classical performances by the Paducah Symphony Orchestra.

Paducah's Artist Relocation Program attracted working artists of all types to participate in the City's creative energy and reside in its oldest residential neighborhood, Lower Town. The campus of Paducah School of Art & Design, a division of West Kentucky Community & Technical College, is the latest addition to the Lower Town Arts District.
