Just as Louisville is experiencing rapid economic growth and national recognition for its entertainment, alcohol, and charm, the hip hop scene here is going through its own boom; breaking artists nationally and boasting local and worldwide attention with a wave of talented individuals and works.  In the midst of the swell, a number of artists began participating in roundtable style discussions with the goal of building community and growing the scene. One idea that emerged from these discussions was a showcase event that featured the full scope of the local movement. Come have a great time, witnessing the fruition of that idea, with a wide variety of amazing talent and never before seen artist and medium collaborations at LouiEvolve Hip Hop and Arts Festival.
