The Virginia has been entertaining Somerset since 1920s

SOMERSET, Ky. (FOX 56) — Somerset is a spot for food fanatics, lake lovers, and art admirers. The city is also not without history. The Virginia has been entertaining Somerset since the 1920s. As expected, the historic venue has changed since the doors first opened. It opened in 1922 as a local movie theater and for more than 70 years became part of the city's fondest memories. But the family-owned business fell on hard times, sitting vacant and deteriorating for nearly three decades. In 1994, The Virginia closed after an ice storm caused its roof to collapse. Somerset coffee shop looks to bounce back after being destroyed in May tornado The Virginia has been entertaining Somerset since 1920s Somerset looking to capitalize on growth through occupational tax hike Several years ago, Somerset bought the property from the city's downtown development corporation, spending $2.3 million to bring the theater back to life ahead of its 100th anniversary. The historic space is now more than a cinema, renovated into a multi-use venue. 'The Virginia Theater, what I like to call the artist formerly known as the Virginia Cinema, was one of the movie theaters located in downtown Somerset. One of the others was the Kentucky, which is now a parking lot. That was one of the main reasons why this community really banded together to try to refurbish this theater was to not let it become a parking lot and to let it be a part of the rich history of this community,' said John Alexander, the Pulaski County government's communications director. Last month, it hosted the 606-strong tornado relief benefit concert to raise money for storm survivors of May's horrific tornado that damaged parts of the area. Alexander is proud to have an iconic piece of the city back in play. He said if the lake is the city's lifeblood, then The Virginia is its heart. Read more of the latest Kentucky news 'The community was very welcoming of it. I like to use the quote that Humphrey Bogart used in The Maltese Falcon: it's 'the stuff that dreams are made of.' This has been our dream for decades and to have it back open, to have it accessible to the public, and to be in a form that it's never been in before and to have a building that is modern, that does have modern sensibilities, then also a throwback to the past,' Alexander said. Alexander also hosts a classic movie series at the theater once a month. 'To me, it's a chance again to show people Somerset that when they visit here, when they visit the lake, when they visit this area, that it's something that they can come see that's modern but then also looks towards the past as well,' said Alexander. 'They can't stay on the lake 24 hours a day, seven days a week. So, to have things like this in downtown Somerset for people to go do outside of the lake and outside of that regular Memorial Day to Labor Day lake season is something that benefits everybody.' Friday night, the band Who's Bad: The Ultimate Michael Jackson Experience is performing at the Virginia. The show starts at 8 p.m. For a list of other shows and events, click here.

Walmart Unveils Bold Ad Campaign To Update Its Image Starring Walton Goggins

"Walmart, Who Knew?" ad campaign with Walton Goggins Walmart is intent on changing its image from the familiar discount retailer you thought you knew to what it is becoming: a cutting-edge, digitally driven retail leader, all while staying true to its humble, middle-American roots. It does that brilliantly in a new ad campaign, entitled 'Walmart. Who Knew,' featuring The White Lotus star Walton Goggins, whose name makes him the perfect fit for the role. In another custom-made pairing, its soundtrack is The Who's classic rock anthem, 'Who Are You.' 'Walmart's new ad campaign is designed to make consumers rethink their perceptions of the brand,' GlobalData's Neil Saunders shared with me. 'It hits all the right notes. It is funny and engaging, uses great actors and its message actually makes people pause and think.' Walmart began the year with a logo refresh that included a wordmark inspired by founder Sam Walton's original trucker cap, along with a bolder custom font. The change, considered ever so slight by numerous social media commentators, hardly lived up to the promise expressed in a statement by chief marketing officer William White: 'Walmart aims to be an inspirational, digital retailer that provides all the products, brands and services our customers need and want. This update, rooted in the legacy of our founder, Sam Walton, demonstrates our evolving capabilities and longstanding commitment to serve our customers of today and tomorrow.' With the 'Walmart. Who Knew?' campaign, White and his Walmart team have made good on that promise. The one-minute commercial includes a series of four vignettes, starting with Goggins in a sauna he bought from Walmart – 'Who knew?' Next comes a Big Foot tracking adventure, where he orders bear spray online, and a honky-tonk bar scene, where he plays the piano and uses the Walmart app to settle a brewing bar fight. The commercial ends with Goggins and a group of folk dancers clogging, an homage to Walmart's country heritage, spotlighting that Walmart has all the necessary equipment for a folk dance, from dancing shoes, bullhorns to call out steps and accordions for musicians – 'They should call you Walton 'Cloggins.'' A final voiceover says, 'The Walmart you thought you knew is now new.' The commercial succinctly and humorously gets the point across. Walmart carries over half a billion items online and it offers express delivery in as little as one hour. It very effectively invites new and established customers to take a second look at Walmart. The commercial drop also coincides with the launch of a GenAI assistant called Sparky. The 'Ask Sparky' button on the app aids in search, provides product comparisons and synthesizes customer reviews. And more Sparky features will follow – 'It will be multi-modal: able to understand text, images, audio and video.' According to The Little Black Book, Publicis Groupe's Leo Burnett NY, Fallon, Digitas and Contender agencies created the spot, including a Spanish language version headlined by Stephanie Beatriz. Spanish-language "Walmart. Who Knew?" commercial starring Stephanie Beatriz The commercials are available now online and will extend to TV, out-of-home ads and paid social media, including TikTok TopView. It is also inviting Reddit aficionados to post user-generated 'Who Knew' Walmart moments. With a Walmart store now within ten miles of 90% of American consumers, its ubiquitous presence makes it easy to overlook or take for granted. This commercial sends a powerful invitation to consumers to give it another look. 'The wider point is that the ad is not produced in isolation. It is part of an ongoing mission to broaden the appeal of Walmart and it highlights tangible changes the company has made on the ground,' GlobalData's Saunders noted. 'A low-price message is still at the heart of Walmart, but it is now so much more than this. When it comes to online shopping, Amazon is often the default. Walmart is trying to break this habitual thought pattern and is saying, 'Look, we're here – give us a try,' he concluded. See also:
