Vision:
Kentucky stands as a singularly qualified region to showcase a revitalized local economy for the 21st century’s challenges of climate change, globalization, and threats to democracy. Through unique geography and natural resources, the Commonwealth’s position in the history and culture of the United States, and the character of its people, Kentucky stands example of an interconnected web of local and regional sustainable growth and self-sufficiency. Watershed Festival is a premier spotlight on the communication between Kentucky’s regions and its connections to the past and future through music, story, advocacy, and education.
 
Mission:
Watershed exists to CELEBRATE Kentucky’s cultural heritage through participation in its unique musical forms, EDUCATE the region about the similarities between Kentucky’s different peoples and their capabilities for self-sufficiency, and ADVOCATE for progressive solutions to Kentucky’s 21st century challenges in water quality, sustainability, social and economic justice, and diversity

Food food and more food!

Have I mentioned our great food and drink partners yet? 
​We're very excited to have Red's Comfort Foods and Motoring Gastro offering their very fine foods at Watershed Fest. In addition.....we'll have Sno What, Louisville's only New Orleans style sno-balls! West 6th Brewing beer will be served up by our friends at LIBA. 

Watershed, and it's parent non-profit Luminary, Inc., are committed to improving our local community and regional economy by supporting and empowering local businesses and community organizations. ALL of the food and beverage providers at Watershed are local, started locally, sourcing locally where possible, and in the case of LIBA promoting the Buy Local message. Only by supporting local can we as citizens keep our city and counties and communities the way we want them, with the unique identities they already have, not as an exclusionary measure, but as an answer to the national interests that would make all of our communities the same. By coming together and acting together, ALL of our diverse peoples can use that essence of American liberty, self determination expressed through democratic action, to build and sustain a local economy that is clean, safe, sustainable, just for all of us, and representative of our full diversity. 

Help us in this mission by visiting and supporting these fine entities, and visiting them at Watershed. Help us too in our goal of keeping Watershed 100% recyclable and compostable!!

Fantastic  partners

We're getting so close the the event! We here at Watershed are so excited to have Kentucky Waterways Alliance, University of Kentucky Water Initiatives Group, Healthy 4 Louisville, Strive, Rural Urban Exchange, and so many more advocates, exhibitors and vendors joining us. Make sure to stop by, ask them what they do, and ask how you can get involved. These groups are making positive change in our community, and Watershed exists because of them!

In addition to the groups listed above, we really couldnt put on thise event without the support of West 6th Brewing, Louisville Water Company, WFPK, LIBA, LEO, Le Fleur de Merde, Lettleiki Icelandics, Pink Elephant Farm, and Rainbow Blossom. These companies and community groups are actively making an effort to support the missions of Watershed: quality water for everyone, sustainable business and environment practices, social and economic justice for all, and a diverse  work and community space. Thank you!
