Mayor to proclaim National Arts & Humanities Month National Arts and Hu- manities Month (NAHM) was established over 30 years ago by the Americans for the Arts Foundation. It focuses on the arts at the local, state and national levels, and en- courages individuals and or- ganizations to participate in the arts. It also allows governments and businesses to show their support of the arts by raising public awareness about the role the arts and humanities play in communities. On Monday, Oct. 22, at 5:30 p.m. at the Florence Event Center, Florence Mayor Joe Henry will be making a proclamation for National Arts and Human- ities Month. The Public Art Com- mittee’s (PAC) work has centered around the mural that it’s commissioning for the Central Lincoln PUD 6, in the annual Give a Day Away community service event. This year, the team will devote its time and focus on painting the interior of a home for an incoming fami- ly in need.
