Leesburg arts center thanks commission; West Leesburg CDC announces June 6 ribbon cutting
Summary
During public comment the Leesburg Center for the Arts thanked the commission for support and said Lakefront TV will air a student puppet show; West Leesburg CDC invited commissioners to a June 6 ribbon cutting for a duplex at 2114 Waitman Avenue and said it received recognition from the George W. H. Bush Foundation.
Amanda McClee, president of the Leesburg Center for the Arts, told the City Commission during public comment that 15 ArtU students performed a puppet show for parents and that Lakefront TV provided coverage of the program.
Her remarks thanked the commission for its continued support of the arts and said the art center was "completely full with all of our residents and parents of those kids." The news of Lakefront TV coverage, she said, will mean broader local visibility for the center's youth programming.
