The year of 2019 was a bittersweet for Unlimited Future as we said goodbye to our long-term Executive Director, Gail Patton. We wish Gail the best health and happiness as she begins a new chapter in life. The change in leadership marks a new milestone for Unlimited Future, welcoming our first African American Executive Director, Ursulette Huntley.
Through the support of a National Endowment for the Arts Our Town Grant, a team of collaborators is actively gathering community input to shape the vision for the Central City District over the next 25 years.
Unlimited Future coordinated the local stakeholders and a team of expert consultants through the process. The goal of the economic diversification plan is as follows; “We want a district where people
will stop, spend time, contribute ideas and resources, and weave West Huntington’s threads of brilliance into a robust cultural cloth.” The project will publish an area-wide plan that combines the streetscape, programming, and use, marketing, and brand, as well as the organizational framework needed to execute the plan. The outcome will be more businesses and less vacancy on 14th Street West in Huntington, WV.

brand awareness, coordinating partnerships, and building organizational capacity.
During this time UFI has been laser focused on achieving these goals. The
