Wade and Alice Houston: Leading by Example

First a KET documentary, and now your chance to hear from Wade and Alice Houston in person about breaking barriers in sports and life. You’ll hear about the tough lessons they learned along the way—and what has kept them grounded as a couple and as a family.

They’ll also talk about the importance of giving back, both in Louisville and in Wade’s hometown in Tennessee. It is leading by example at its finest as we pay tribute to these community treasures. The Frazier History Museum is pleased to partner with the city’s Office of Equity for this program, with a few words from Louisville’s new Mayor Craig Greenberg about the Houstons. Other surprise guests will be joining us and sharing their own personal stories of how Alice and Wade impacted their lives. The Houston family is currently represented in our Kentucky Rivalries exhibition.
