The Greater Livingston County Arts Council, 209 W. Madison St. in Pontiac, Illinois has received an Illinois Humanities COVID-19 Emergency Relief Grant in the amount of $2,500 to be used for general operations. Illinois Humanities activates the humanities through free public programs, grants, and educational opportunities that foster reflection, spark conversation, build community, and strengthen civic engagement. Illinois Humanities is a nonprofit organization and the state’s affiliate for the National Endowment for the Humanities.

The Joe Bailey Gallery

Lisa Green: Our March show, Aurora Borealis: Students Experiencing Northern Lights, has been hung in the Joe Bailey gallery. The show is a blend of my K-8th grade students' artwork and John Gahm's stunning photography of aurora borealis from around the world. In January, John visited my students to educate and inspire them as I introduced the theme for this unit.

The opening for this show will be a bit different from our usual ones, as we try to accomodate the schedules of the students and staff. It will be held after school this Friday, February 28th from 3-6pm.
