Arts Council Masquerade Ball

Saturday night the Municipal Building was transformed into a festive, lively gallery of art décor. The guests were decked out in their finest, tuxedos for the guys and beautiful dresses for the gals. There were beautiful murals on the walls and the water color works of Kelli Just, a student at Tabor College, Hillsboro were on display through out the auditorium. She was the first premier artist chosen by the Junction City Arts Council. Charles Volland was recognized for his long time commitment to the arts in Junction City. In addition, the Junction City Arts Council’s new logo was unveiled. The evening had a carnival theme with stilt walkers, fire breathing dragons and live music. Wonderful hor devours of all tastes were shared by all.

This event was the first of what hopefully will become an annual event celebrating the arts in our community. Great big thanks to Art Council Director Gail Parsons and her staff from the Art Gallery for their efforts in making this event happen. Thanks also to the Junction City Arts Council Board of Directors and all of the volunteers who made the event special. The arts are alive and well in Junction City.
