						Thursday 
						evening, Lincoln Arts Institute owners Jason Hoffman and Marcia 
						Cook were excited to see the turnout for the first Logan 
						County Arts exhibit for 2021. After the passing of 
						former owner Toby Prange aka Moses Pinkerton, Hoffman 
						and Cook were able to purchase the institute building 
						late last year. Since then, the couple has worked to 
						freshen up the interior and were well pleased with how 
						the art displays presented on the new fresh white 
						backdrops.
 The Logan County Arts members were forced to take a year 
						off due to the coronavirus. For those members getting 
						out showing their work and visiting with patrons was a 
						refreshing new start to 2021.
 
 In the building, all the guests honored the request to 
						wear face masks and keep safe distances. Hoffman and 
						Cook removed their covers for a photo but put them back 
						on immediately afterward.
