2000 Elizabeth O'Neill Verner
Governor's Award for the Arts Recipient

The Cultural Arts Program was created by City Council in 1979 to plan for and support the arts and cultural activities throughout the community. The staff of the Cultural Arts Program works with a twenty-five member advisory committee composed of citizens from a cross-section of the community. Together they work to provide programs and services that enhance the quality of life for our citizens and assist in the economic development of our city as a desirable place to live and visit.
