NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-NebraskaLand National Bank is once again showing their support of the Arts in North Platte by again sponsoring the Sheldon Art Exhibit at the Prairie Arts Center, 416 North Jeffers Street.
NebraskaLand National Bank has supported the Sheldon Statewide Exhibit for the last 22 years since the Bank’s establishment in 1998.
While schools will not be able to tour the exhibit this year, Nebraskaland National Bank President and CEO Mike Jacobson felt it was still a cause worth supporting.
“When you’re headquartered in a town, you can see how important it is to give back to the community and the impact that you’re making,” said Jacobson. "
“When we first started [the Bank] I knew that we wanted to focus on youth and the arts, and bringing in events like this is really important to our community,” Jacobson added.
The exhibit’s theme this year is Compact Rhythms.
Phyllis Swigart, Publicity Chairman of the North Platte Art Study League, describes Compact Rhythms as “highlighting artists who utilize abstraction to find different ways of looking at the world around them.
The exhibit presents a variety of modes and styles of nonrepresentational art throughout the 20th century while focusing on artists who work on a smaller scale”.
The exhibition is open beginning October 2nd-28th from 11:00 a.m. -4:00 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
