Head to the Highlands Museum and Discovery Center in Ashland for a chance to be face to face with one of Kentucky's most famous icons.
And that's what's happening around the Commonwealth.
I'm Toby Gibbs.
Thank you, Toby.
You just heard about Colt and Ryan appearing in Lexington while Colton was honored with a key to the city today in honor of his incredible work on stage and screen.
He gave credit to his arts education here in Lexington, as well as his family, for making him the person and performer he is today.
The teachers that I was afforded growing up here in Lexington at the School for the Creative Performing Arts, they saw me completely before I could even see myself.
Arts education, luckily in my household, was accessible by right, and it has been the greatest luxury of my life.
I don't believe it should be a luxury.
I believe it should be a right for all children.
And thankfully, this town believes that mission to being from here is one of the great prides in my life.
Thank you.
Well, we're proud you are from Lexington.
And Mayor Linda Gordon says Lexington is also proud of Colt and Ryan and says the city has a real star.
Agree.
