Kentucky Edition will feature a special slate of stories from Western Kentucky during the week of July 31 – Aug. 4, as KET’s public affairs team visits Paducah and surrounding communities during the week leading up to Fancy Farm 2023.

The weekday evening public affairs program, hosted by Renee Shaw, will feature a variety of stories exploring Western Kentucky communities, including reports about Paducah’s first decade as a UNESCO Creative City (one of nine such designated cities in the U.S.); the city’s National Quilt Museum, which features some of the country’s finest quilts; and the storied history behind the Fancy Farm picnic.

Additionally, the program will be broadcasting from downtown Paducah on Thursday, Aug. 3, and from the Fancy Farm grounds on Friday, Aug. 4.

Kentucky Edition airs each weekday evening at 6:30/5:30 pm on KET and at 11/10 pm on KET2. The program may be streamed on-demand at KET.org/KentuckyEdition or on the PBS Video app.
