It is being slated as “New Year’s Eve Star Studded Evening.” Nancy Toma serves as the president of the Le Mars Arts Council and says the evening will consist of a silent auction, live music, hors d’oeuvres, and Champaign. But the focus of the evening will be on the collection of celebrity autographs and photos that was the obtained from a gentleman that attended Westmar College.
Toma explains the history of the collection of the celebrity autographs, and how it was the city, the museum, and now the Le Mars Arts Center was able to acquire the unique exhibit.

The collection of autographs is primarily with celebrities, musicians, sports figures, entertainers, government officials, many from the era of the 1960’s and 70’s. Toma talks about some of the names that may, or may not be familiar to us.
