Arts projects in Kootenai County are coming to life thanks to the Jack Bannon Fund for the Arts. Five artists, including Elaina DeJong, Doreen Graham, Keith Harrop and Joslyn Benak received grant awards as part of the legacy of actor Jack Bannon.
The Jacklin Arts and Cultural Center is inviting artists to share their artistic expressions of hope and healing in the upcoming "Art Uplifts" exhibit.
Nary a dry eye could be found in the audience as it was announced Thursday evening that Eva Santiago-Rosenberg is the 2024 Kootenai County Boys and Girls Clubs Youth of the Year.
"I’m feeling just overwhelmed with so many good emotions,” the New Vision Alternative High School junior said after the announcement, surrounded by congratulations and well wishes from friends and loved ones.
“This is definitely a new experience for me," she said. "I’m glad that I’m here, for sure.”
The Post Falls Historical Society is changing the location of its annual meeting from the Post Falls Library to the Sanctuary Room of the Jacklin Arts and Cultural Center.
