Program Description

Event Details

Join us on this date at the Jeffersonville location for our Let's Learn with ELVIS!

Elvis Presley, as we know, passed away on August 16, 1977 and as a tribute to him, we have two very special guests here today:  Butch Polston, the co-owner, of B&K Enterprises Costume Company, Inc. and Travis Albertson, the Sincerely Elvis Tribute Show.

Butch Polston is the co-owner of B&K Enterprises Costume Company, Inc., along with his spouse, Kim.  Childhood sweethearts ever since she was a mere fourteen and he just sixteen years of age, they celebrated 40 years in the costuming industry in 2020.  Butch will be giving a 45-minute talk, plus 15 minutes Q&A, on Elvis' costumes and he will be bringing a few of them with him for show & tell.  In addition, our North Display Case will feature more Elvis costumes during the entire month of August.  

After Butch's talk, the Sincerely Elvis Tribute Show featuring Travis Albertson will begin.  An Elvis Impersonator, Travis will perform for one hour and there will be a free photo opportunity with him afterwards.  Travis has been performing for 24 years and is very well known.  He has worked with American singer and musician Mickey Gilley a number of times as well as with the late Elvis' own musicians.  If you haven't laid eyes on or heard Travis sing before today, you will think you are seeing the real Elvis performing right before your very eyes.
