Lexington's Warehouse District used to be a stretch you drove past. Now it's a destination, and Kentucky Ballet Theatre is part of why. We sit down with Norbe Risco to trace how a small, determined ballet company helped shape the neighborhood's identity, and how the neighborhood helped the company grow into a year-round cultural anchor.
We dig into what's on the horizon: Ballet Spectrum 2 at the Pam Miller Downtown Arts Center, where classical meets contemporary and dancers get a rare shot at choreographing on professional artists, plus a full Don Quixote production with bold choices that spotlight strength and character.
Then we go behind the curtain — six-to-seven hour training days, corps precision, injuries (including an ACL tear and a hip replacement), costumes built in-house, the "no gossip" rule that protects company culture, and Norbe's ongoing support of all things ballet.
If you love the performing arts, or the real work that makes beauty look effortless, this one's for you!

A Lexington institution nearly disappeared when real estate math took over — but Chevy Chase Inn continues to survive. We sat down with CCI owners Bill Farmer of Farmer's Jewelry and Kevin Heathcoat of Bourbon and Toulouse duo who bought one of the most iconic bars in Lexington to keep it from becoming a generic retail buildout.

We dig into CCI's roots as a 1933 neighborhood dive, the legend of infamous bartenders, and the small decisions that keep the magic intact — preserving the grit, adding craft beer without losing the soul, and building a bourbon list that doesn't punish the wallets of regular people. Kevin explains why they pour Pappy at cost, how flippers warp the market, and why the best whiskey culture still looks like friends sharing a pour, not chasing trophies.

We also get into the neighborhood lore: Budweiser history, Clydesdale parades down Euclid, and the cardboard signs that went viral. Plus the real rules of a great dive bar: no politics, no pretension, and the idea that you don't own a community bar, you steward it for whoever comes next.
If you love Lexington history, Kentucky bourbon, and what makes a bar worth saving — this one's for you!

Friday plans = handled. 🌙✨

The Night Market is back in the Warehouse Block on April 17 from 5–10 PM, and National Ave is about to be full of local makers, insane finds, good drinks, and the kind of vibe you accidentally stay at for way longer than planned.

Pop into The Void Sake, wander the vendor booths, grab something cute, run into people you know, and pretend you totally meant to spend your whole night here.

It’s free, pet-friendly, family-friendly, and honestly one of the best ways to do Lexington on a spring Friday.

See you in the Block 💫
