Lunchbox Lecture: Preserving the Pershing Mural

On October 21 at 12 pm, join us for a special Lunchbox Lecture highlighting the history and preservation of one of Lincoln’s most iconic artworks—the Pershing Auditorium Mural. Liz Shea-McCoy of the Pershing Mural Historic Preservation Committee; Carlos Sevan, executive director of the Nebraska Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired; and John Olson of Tactile Images, creator of the Tactile History exhibit at the Nebraska History Museum, will share the story of the Pershing Auditorium, the mural, and the ongoing efforts to preserve this piece of Nebraska’s cultural heritage.

Event admission is free. LNKTV will record the lecture and make it available to the public.

Special thanks to the Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation for providing funding for the recording of this event.
