Come on down to the @olmstedparks502 Boone Square Park (19th & Rowan) for the second annual Neighborhood Bike-In this evening from 5-11pm! Here’s a shot of some awesome UofL freshmen who volunteered their time to prepare our lovely historic park for the shindig, and here’s more info: “Grab your bike and head to Boone Square on August 17 for a neighborhood Bike-In! Like a drive-in movie but with bicycles, this FREE community event features live music, food, drinks and movies, thanks to support from @heinebroscoffee and @sonablast Records. - A screening of the movie Epic - LIVE music from Hot Sauce Brass Band and Scott T. Smith - Food from local food trucks and beer from @westsixth Brewing - Activities and games for kids of all ages from sonaBLAST! Records, Falls City Community BikeWorks, @habitatforhumanity, Portland Promise Center, and @kmacmuseum. - Bike Racks are provided by Bicycling for Louisville‘s Every Commute Counts, and a Bike Giveaway sponsored by Scheller’s Fitness & Cycling. Hosted by Olmsted Parks Conservancy and curated by Louisville’s own @bensollee and Hal Riedling, this event is the thirdof five FREE Neighborhood Bike-Ins. Each event is designed to highlight each park’s unique local neighborhood, artists, organizations and businesses.” In short, be there or be (Boone) Square! #louisvillelove The last time Katy Delahanty had a solo gallery show, she barely knew about it. Always private about her artwork, Katy had just graduated from Manual high school when her father secretly set up an art show to sell some of her teenage masterpieces to fund her stint at Cooper Union in New York City. “I painted a lot as a kid. I think I had some good work in that show. I’ll never really know because this was before the iPhone era, and no photos were taken before the pieces sold. It’s strange knowing your work is out there in the world without knowing where or even what it is”. That was nearly 2 decades ago and Katy hasn’t pursued a solo show since, in a bit of a trauma response to the first one. Fortunately, she hasn’t stopped creating. This evening - Friday the 16th at 5:30pm - her “Moonbeam Enterprises” exhibit opens at the @louisvillegrows Healthy House (1641 Portland Avenue). It’s not just paintings though, because Katy is far from just a painter. She’s also an activist, volunteer, teacher, and board member at multiple organizations centered here in Portland, alongside her job as Outreach Director for @louisvillevisualart. Moonbeam Enterprises reflects this diversity in Katy’s interests. Along with her stunning paintings, you’ll also see some of her works-in-progress on display, ranging from a graphic novel collaboration with artist Julie Leidner, to an adult coloring book called Chromatic Homes, to a revival of a local magazine her late grandfather helped start in the 1970s called Black Scene. To double down on her connection to our neighborhood, Katy recently purchased a lovely fixer home here, and is soon moving to our bend in the river where her immigrant ancestors originally settled in the 1850s. Stop on by and make this a housewarming of sorts for our new talented neighbor, as she retraces her roots back to Portland and thankfully remembers how to paint along the way! #louisvillelove Visual pollution. Sky trash. Litter on a stick. Road porn. The junk mail of the American highway. Nothing destroys the distinctive character of our communities and the natural beauty of our countryside more rapidly than uncontrolled signs and billboards, and Outfront Media is the gatekeeper to this evil empire... Wait, we take it all back. This new @porklandbbq sign is awesome! #louisvillelove Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? We’ve got a big mural popping up at 15th & Lytle, focusing on four of the beautiful homes around our neighborhood, reimagined in technicolor. Please do not lick the wall! #louisvillelove #ourportlandbuildings The Shanty has left the @portlandmuseumky building. Farewell and thanks for the awesome exhibit! #louisvillelove
