KET is going on the road to visit Hopkinsville, where it will be recording special episodes of its award-winning public affairs programs Kentucky Edition and Kentucky Tonight.

From Tuesday, June 18, through Thursday, June 20, KET will be broadcasting several episodes of Kentucky Edition and an episode of Kentucky Tonight from the Alhambra Theatre in downtown Hopkinsville.

Throughout the week, Kentucky Edition will feature special stories about the region, including segments on Kentucky writer bell hooks, the city of Guthrie, the Trail of Tears Pow Wow, as well as interviews with local lawmakers, the publisher of the Hoptown Chronicle newspaper, and National Spelling Bee participants.

Kentucky Edition airs each weekday evenings 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 App.
