(Louisville, KY) As part of Black Business Month, The Palm Room is collaborating with a poplar eatery while they find a new venue. Starting on Wednesday, August 16th, The Palm Room is partnering with Melt 502. They will open their kitchen so their customers can enjoy their menu specialties which includes deep fried egg rolls with soul food fillings to chicken wings and great side dishes.
From noon to midnight patrons of The Palm Room and the customers of Melt 502 will come out to support both businesses. The Palm Room understands that collaboration and partnership is the key to economic growth, development, and longevity of a business.
Donnie Adkins, owner of The Palm Room says, “Stability and consistency is vital to have a successful business. Working together is good business for both of us as entrepreneurs. We are giving both our customers something new, and we hope you come out the next month and support both businesses.”
Melt 502 created a large following in South Louisville with their brick n’ mortar. With that success they are looking for additional opportunities to serve other communities such as West Louisville as they continue to grow their brand.
Save the following dates where Melt 502 will be working out of the kitchen at The PalmRoom from 12 noon to 12 midnight with a limited menu serving some of their favorite items:
August 16th
August 23rd
August 30th
September 6th
Melt Wednesday at The Palm Room will also include Open Mic Night. Come out and enjoy great food, great entertainment, and great company where two businesses work to support one another.
The Palm Room is located at 1821 W. Jefferson Street. We are the latest venue to add slot machines which support Shirley’s Way.

(Washington, DC) Tonight, in Washington the Miss Black USA crowned a winner. Louisville, Kentucky native Ariel Thompson will represent the scholarship pageant. Her reign begins this evening and Thompson will hold the title for one year.
Thompson will return to Louisville later this week. To set up an interview contact VIPP Communications at info@vippcommunications.com or by calling 502.341.7306.
For the first time in more than ten years, Kentucky was represented in the pageant. Miss Ariel Thompson, Ms. Dominique Joy Thompson and Nia Franklin all travelled to Washington to compete.
We would like to congratulate Miss Talented Teen Nia Franklin. This evening, she placed first runner-up. Ms. Dominique Joy Thompson won the fitness competition in the Ms. Division.
Dr. Ashley Anderson says “I’m so excited about Ariel’s win. She earned this great honor, and we are celebrating this huge accomplishment. I’m excited for all three of our delegates. Nia and Joy represented their divisions and gave us momentum heading into this year’s Miss Black Kentucky. It’s a great feeling. This was a great evening. To hear the audience cheering for the young ladies brought tears to my eyes. These ladies have worked hard and represented this pageant in a grand way.”
The birth of the Miss Black Kentucky USA franchise is one that will have an impact on young women of Kentucky for generations to come. Beyond the scholarships that will be awarded in Miss, Ms., and Teen divisions, the life skills programming will be sure to elevate the minds and lives of all participants. It will groom leaders, shed light on issues of concern in the community, and meaningfully fund the educational pursuits of Black women in Kentucky. It is my intent that this program becomes the largest scholarship funding source for young women of color across Kentucky.
Again, to set up an interview with any of our Kentucky delegates, please contact VIPP Communications at info@vippcommunications.com.
