Downtown Paducah | Kentucky Life | KET

With its abundance of artists, galleries and museums, Paducah is widely considered one of Kentucky's most creative communities. The town sought and received a UNESCO designation as a City of Crafts and Folk Art.

The heart of Paducah is its downtown. From the earliest explorations of Kentucky's Western Waterlands region, the confluence of the Ohio and Tennessee rivers brought people to Paducah's riverfront and the city grew from its banks.

Home to the National Quilt Museum, fiber artists around the country come here each April for the American Quilter's Society Annual Quilt Show and Contest. Downtown is also home to the Yeiser Art Center, Maiden Alley Cinema, the Carson Center, and the Paducah School of Art.
