Calling All Artists! We are thrilled to announce that R. J. Corman has generously donated a vintage railcar for an exciting new project at Gatton Park On The Town Branch in Lexington, KY! Gatton Park invites talented local artists to submit their applications for a unique opportunity to paint a mural on the outer four walls of the railcar.

The railcar will serve as the primary outdoor structure for the park’s food and beverage services. This is your chance to showcase your creativity and make a lasting impact on a historic landscape.

“Our history is rooted in this land, and we wanted to be a part of the next exciting chapter being built on this space,” said Ed Quinn III, President and CEO of R. J.

Attention Community Members: Update on the Fourth of July Fireworks Show!

Due to the projected weather conditions, the public parking area for this year's 4th of July fireworks display will be relocated to our headquarters’ general parking lots through our main gates on US-27. Safety is our top priority, and this change will ensure the safety and enjoyment of all attendees.

Gates will open as originally scheduled at 8:00 p.m. and remain open until capacity is reached. Please note that there will be limited parking available due to the size of the parking lots.
We look forward to celebrating Independence Day with you!
