Fate of RiverPark Center in Owensboro Decided
Sources have confirmed that the agreement between Spectra and the RiverPark Center was denied by the RiverPark Center Board.

Over the last week social media lit up when rumors surfaced that this agreement may happen. A special board meeting was held this morning to listen to public opinion and it looks like community voices were heard.
Performing arts centers like the RiverPark Center are a staple in communities all over the country. They bring the arts to students in the community and wonderful family-friendly shows. Now, it looks as though those valuable programs will be safe...for now!
We'll update developments as we receive information.
