Open House

Blackstone Media Network is growing and to celebrate we recently opened our doors to friends and clients to share our awesome new office space.

In order to accommodate our expanded employee and client base, we have more than tripled our office space in the Starks Building. Ralph Severson, a partner at Blackstone Media Network, played a huge role in the layout and design of the new space. Thanks to his background in architectural engineering he was able to draft the blueprints himself ensuring we got exactly what we envisioned.

The result is an inspirational environment where each developer has his/her own office with a view of downtown Louisville, several areas for team collaboration, a café for the much needed coffee break and for catered lunches, and a classroom, which we’ve dubbed “Blackstone University,” where weekly classes are taught by a rotating member of our staff.

Several of the surrounding businesses on Fourth Street sponsored our open house with door prizes and Red Star Tavern catered/sponsored the evening with a generous array of food and dessert. The following is a list of door prize winners:

• Mary with the Advertising Federation of Louisville – $80 Executive Spa gift certificate
• Walter with Carrico Jewelers- $80 Executive Spa gift certificate
• Yvonne with The Institute for Crisis Management – $25 Hard Rock Café gift certificate
• Denise with Greater Louisville, Inc. – $80 Executive Spa gift certificate
• Kenneth with Kentuckiana Management Consultants – $50 Red Star Tavern gift certificate
• Jaquee J. – $50 Sports & Social Club gift certificate
• William J. – Grand Prize Winner of a large Kodak digital picture frame

We would like to extend a thank you to Denise Traylor and Terri Weber from Greater Louisville Inc., who came and performed a ribbon cutting ceremony to help celebrate our success.

Overall, it was a great event and we are very excited about our future growth!
