Tuscaloosa will grant the Kentuck Art Center an additional $80,000 this year as the nonprofit prepares to move it's world-famous Festival of the Arts to the Druid City.
Leadership at the Kentuck Art Center and Festival will soon have a new face - sort of - as longtime executive director Amy Echols takes on a new role there.
It wasn't clear if the city wanted to mend fences or burn bridges Monday in a bizarre attempt to keep the Kentuck Festival of the Arts from leaving its longtime home in Northport.
Last month's 52nd Kentuck Festival of the Arts will likely be the iconic event's final year in its longtime home at Kentuck Park in Northport, its organizers announced Wednesday.
Leadership at Kentuck said Wednesday that they are moving to dismiss a lawsuit they filed against a local business last month over the unauthorized use of their name.
