More than 125 people attended the event, which took place at Whiskey Row Lofts in downtown Louisville. Congressman John Yarmuth and Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer spoke during the meeting and expressed their support for historic preservation. Preservation Kentucky honored Edie Bingham and Linda Bruckheimer with awards recognizing their service and longstanding commitments to preservation. It was a terrific evening, with great food, music, and artwork by local artists. Many of us are already looking forward to next year!
