In a return to the curious, Commonwealth Curiosities Volume 2 embarks on another adventure around the state of Kentucky. Showcasing not only roadside attractions, but also the people who dedicate their lives to these unique and often overlooked places.

Volume 2 brings to life 9 roadside attractions from across the Commonwealth; from an unusually tall historic building, to one man’s Wild West themed hobby. You’ll meet a dog that’s the talk of the town, and revisit your childhood with a museum both young and old can enjoy.

The documentary is an ode to days gone by and the people who make it their mission to keeps these attractions alive. It was co-directed by Convergent Media senior John Tanner Blevins of Paintsville, and help on camera from Convergent Media senior Patrick Brumback, of Owenton, along with MSU’s John Flavell, CVM instructor.

Additional information is available by contacting Middleton at 606-783-9583.
