The Southern Kentucky Performing Arts Center (SKyPAC) and Orchestra Kentucky are partnering to present the community with a slate of holiday events in November and December, with performances by gospel legend Guy Penrod, the Rewinders, and Tyrone Dunn & Kin-Foke. The lineup will also feature Orchestra Kentucky’s annual J.C. Kirby Christmas Spectacular and beloved holiday films including “White Christmas,” “Christmas Vacation,” and “It’s a Wonderful Life.”

“The holidays are a time to celebrate, and we are thrilled to partner with SKyPAC to present our community with several opportunities to do so,” said Orchestra Kentucky Founding Music Director and Executive Director Jeff Reed. “From gospel to rock to soul and movie favorites, there is something for everyone this season.”

The holiday event schedule begins the day after Thanksgiving with a free screening of “White Christmas” at noon and continues through New Year’s Eve with a performance by local favorites Tyrone Dunn & Kin-Foke.
