In a cultural double-header today, Verne spoke in the second hour with Laura Becker, executive director of Spokane Arts. The subject today: Create Spokane - Spokane Arts Month. As stated on their webpage, Spokane Arts Month is "a month-long celebration of local arts and culture across creative industries and arts disciplines. With 31 days of arts activities, there's something for everyone." The month aptly concludes with a spectacular costume ball and awards ceremony, and tickets may be purchased online.
