The Lower Town Arts & Music Festival is a two-day celebration of the art, music, food, beer and wine from the region surrounding Paducah. It takes place in the Lower Town Historic Arts District close to downtown Paducah. Sculptors, painters, craftsmen and photographers set up covered booths along the Arts District’s streets for review and purchase.
