We love this very honest Yancey’s Gastropub & Brewery review from Wandering Kentucky! This short and sweet ending sums it all up- "Like I said, I like beer. I also like Yancey's."

We're glad to see that Wandering Kentucky wandered over to Crystal Onyx Cave while in town! Caving there includes experiencing the out-of-this-world collectible creatures placed all over the property! We love a quirky stop and this one doesn't disappoint!

Give this guy credit... he definitely Wandered a little further from home than I did today!

Bounty of the Barrens Farmers' Market is a Glasgow staple and we loved having Wandering Kentucky out to experience what makes us consistently one of the most, if not the most, agricultural counties in the state of Kentucky! Catch the quaint market every Saturday morning on the downtown square through October!

We wouldn’t have Wandering Kentucky into downtown Glasgow and not include Khana Cafe on the itinerary! Check out this fabulous review and then make your own plans for a cozy meal at this locally owned Asian fusion restaurant!

Enjoy a sneak peak of SOMA - Center for Dance’s Soma Presents: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland from dress rehearsals! Tickets are still available for tonight’s performance! 🫖♥️✨🩰 🎟️ historicplaza.com #betterinthebarrens #supportyourlocalarts

Our local arts scene is vibrant with dance, theatre, and more! You can catch a mix of it all in Soma Presents: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland tonight in downtown Glasgow at the Plaza Theatre! SOMA - Center for Dance’s productions are always high intensity so while showing y’all the technical behind-the-scenes, we thought we would share how the dancers warm up both physically and mentally pre-show. Warm ups begin by rolling out the fascia with tennis balls to get muscles and joints safely lubricated before jumping into movement. Then yoga-inspired routines are utilized to center the mind and synchronize breath to movement. The beginning of warm ups is focused on cardio & strength and includes some light stretching. Next up is “across the floors” beginning with small jumps to warm up the feet, turns, show passes, and then big leaps to finish. Warmups always finish with a giant circle of “pass the squeeze” followed by a company bow and closing remarks from directors & tech crew Then everyone breaks for makeup, hair, and costumes! 🎟️ historicplaza.com #betterinthebarrens #supportyourlocalarts

With any production everyone loves to see a bit of what happens behind-the-scenes so this morning we are showing you a tiny sliver of what goes into a production at the Plaza Theatre in downtown Glasgow! Prepping is intricate and technical as SOMA - Center for Dance knows well as the studio has held many performances at this local venue. This weekend’s Soma Presents: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has required a highly dedicated, highly creative, and highly skilled team of volunteers! Haley and Wesley Peden, respectively, hand stitched costumes and designed hundreds of lighting cues for the shows. Tracy Martin, Micah Page, and Jerrica Wright tackled numerous prop and stage design projects. Chris Hobdy has created all of the social media content to promote the show, as well as handled the sound design and filming aspects of the show. In addition to all of that, there are numerous backstage helpers that keep the dancers safe and orderly, including Kim Costello, Bethany Gaffney, Anne Bruce, Kathy Sanders, Teisha Bardin, Britney Jackson, and Carrie Kinslow. It takes a village so don’t miss this show! ♥️🎟️🫖✨ Tickets are still available at historicplaza.com! #betterinthebarrens #supportyourlocalarts

SOMA - Center for Dance in Glasgow was founded on a vision of unearthing movement as a vital form of expression for all people, everywhere. Because dance is and always should be… for everybody.
