The loss of our printer, one who still does newsprint and newspaper sized printing, is a problem. Anchor staff is currently researching printing companies in our area, but none do the size we like and very few still print on newsprint (a less expensive paper). We have four bids in hand, all of which are substantially more costly than Green Banner. We will select another printer and move forward. We wanted to let everyone who loves this old community newspaper, now an icon in Louisville, and part of the heart of Portland, that our look will be changing, and we may have to increase advertising rates and subscription rates. With current rates, the Anchor breaks even every month. If we are going to keep the Anchor going, we will need the help and support of our advertisers, subscribers and all our readers as we navigate this dramatic change.

Roosevelt Arches at 18th & Duncan Behold the strange beauty of our Roosevelt Arches at 18th & Duncan! Originally constructed on the grounds of the Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School (an architectural wonder in itself, built in 1865 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places) as a shade area for an adjacent community swimming pool, this domed concrete pavilion has stood strong for decades, though its use has become increasingly limited. After the pool was paved over for a parking lot, the arches were used as a school bus shelter. After the school became an apartment complex, the arches haven’t been used for much. A joint effort between New Directions Housing and Louisville Visual Art is aiming to change this with a revitalization plan and a grant from Fund for the Arts.

Last week, four picnic tables were purchased and are being painted by creative 8th graders at Western Middle School. The arch ceilings will also be painted colorfully and the tables will be installed Tim Faulkner Gallery relocates underneath.

Louisville Visual Art (LVA) in partnership with New Directions Housing Corporation (NDHC) has been awarded 1500 & 1600 Muhammad Ali Blvd. (Russell) a $17,500 grant from Imagine Greater Louisville 2020 that will fund four mural projects on NDHC properties. This collaborative effort will fund two murals in the Russell Neighborhood to support the Muhammad Ali Corridor Arts and Cultural District, and two murals in the Portland Neighborhood to contribute to Jeff Alston that neighborhood’s growing collection of public art assets. One mural in each neighborhood will be “community-driven”, where we will go through a community engagement process and invite the community to participate Neighborhood House directly in the mural creation.

You have a real choice for State Representative!

Fellow Portland Residents:

Three candidates are running for your local State Representive (District 43) this November. And one of them is a local Portland resident. That’s me!

I’m running a positive campaign, stressing the good things that we all agree we need: River Skipworth received the Vision Award, • stronger local communities, sponsored by LVA and presented by teacher William Duffy. • excellent education and job training, and • strong local businesses producing good and gratifying jobs for everyone who wants one. This is the quickest and best route to the just and good society we all want.

Think of this campaign season as a job interview. And you are the one who is hiring. In the next few months I hope to convince you that I’m the one you should choose to represent you in Frankfort and help lead the way to a better West Louisville. Payton Sprau received the Portfolio Award, sponsored by Artist & Craftsman Supply and presented by teacher Wilma Bethel. Thanks for your consideration,
