November 2 is a big day in Central Kentucky

Not only is Leatha Kendrick conducting her Eclectic Living Room, but also Billy Collins is reading at Centre:

DANVILLE, KY—Billy Collins, former U.S. Poet Laureate and Centre College Humana visiting professor, will read from his work on Nov. 2 at 8 p.m. in Newlin Hall at Centre’s Norton Center for the Arts. The event is free, and the public is encouraged to attend.

And, if neither of those events is to your liking, tonight Ashley Judd delivers the Blazer Lecture at the University of Kentucky.

Kentucky native and UK alumna Ashley Judd will be the speaker for the 2006 installment of the Paul G. Blazer Lecture Series in the Humanities, hosted by the UK College of Arts and Sciences. She will deliver a lecture titled “At the Root of My Longing: Social Justice, Feminism and Spirituality,” at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 2, in the Concert Hall of the UK Singletary Center for the Arts.

I’ve heard rumors there’s a basketball game too but surely no one would want to watch basketball with all these wonderful choices.
