To the editor:

Once again, Covington County has shown its appreciation of the arts. Saturday’s 2010 Art Off the Wall was a successful event.

It is only through the generosity of our artists, sponsors, performers, and supporters that that the arts programs of LAAC and the Covington Arts Council (CAC) are able to continue.
