A ROUND UP OF EXCITING NEWS FROM LOCAL BUSINESSES

Historic El Korah Shrine Building as New Music Venue 


The Duck Club has acquired the century-old El Korah Shrine at the heart of Boise. The plan is to continue the building's history of community event hosting by making it a permanent home for Shriners' events, scheduling additional concerts there every year, and making the venue accessible to other local promoters and independent artists. Scoggins Capital Investment CEO Andy Scoggin believes that the city's investment in creative venues and businesses will increase the worth of the company's other businesses and properties by attracting entrepreneurs and knowledge workers. This summer, when work is finally completed on Treefort Music Hall and Duck Club, there will be a big opening party.  DuckClubBoise.com.

The new Visit Boise logo features a custom typeface with painterly lettering that pays tribute to Boise's artistic community. The free-form lettering illustrates the city's laid-back vibe and its "come as you are" attitude. The Duft Waterson design features deep curves that symbolize Boise's trails, river and beautiful outdoors, and the blue color represents the water and blue sky in Boise. VisitBoise.com.
