PORT ANGELES — As the Light Up the Lincoln project continues, fundraisers Scott Nagel and Karen Powell will conduct on Wednesday the last of three workshops aimed at building a board of directors.
Nagel and Powell are in the process of raising $235,000 to purchase the Lincoln Theater, the shuttered movie house at First and Lincoln streets, to convert it into a nonprofit community arts center.
At Wednesday’s 6 p.m. meeting in the upstairs conference room at The Landing mall, 115 E. Railroad Ave., the pair will discuss their plans.
They also will hold a brainstorming session with attendees about what qualities make effective board members and discuss who in the community has those traits.
Potential board members’ names will then go to the Lincoln Theater project’s advisory council for review, recruitment, interviews and selection.
Everyone interested in the Lincoln project is invited to the meeting, which caps a series of three discussions Nagel and Powell have held over the past six weeks.
For information, phone Nagel at 360-808-3940 or visit RevitalizePortAngeles.org and select the Light Up the Lincoln page.
