Want to see Henry Louis Gates, Jr. speak in person? For the Finding Your Roots fan, we have tickets to a lecture Gates will be giving at Centre College’s Norton Center for the Arts. Dive deep into the past during this special evening, with Gates’ lecture based on Finding Your Roots and the impact of history and genealogy on our lives. With Finding Your Roots now entering its 10th season, Gates has become an icon of public television and continues to showcase and highlight the value of history to understand our lives and times today. Don’t miss your chance to see this PBS star in person here in Kentucky!

A once-in-a-lifetime experience, we have a small number of VIP tickets available for KET donors. These VIP tickets not only include 1 ticket to attend the Finding Your Roots lecture by Henry Louis Gates at Centre College’s Norton Center for the Performing Arts. These tickets also include an exclusive after-lecture reception held by Centre College, where Henry Louis Gates Jr. will be present for time to meet people and talk after the event. There will be a bar, live entertainment, and hors d’oeuvres. These tickets are not available to the general public, but we have a small, limited number available to KET viewers. KET has a very small number of these VIP tickets available, so make sure you get yours!
