Banner Displays

Downtown Danville has approximately 90 light post banners on display. The latest design celebrates Danville as "The City of Firsts", as the home of Kentucky's first capital and first courthouse (among other "firsts") when Kentucky became the Unions 15th state in 1792. The current standard banner was designed by local artist, Brandon Long.

Non-profit community organizations may request banners to be displayed on all, or a portion of, the light posts for a period of time. Some local organizations you might notice are: 
Centre College Commencement - Displayed on Main Street through Campus (typically in May)
Art Center of the Bluegrass - throughout Downtown Danville (Fall, October - November)
