Members of a local literacy program honored Dawson County resident Lake Gibson on Sept. 22 for his recent contribution of two paintings to the Adult Education Center.

  

Gibson donated a painting by Thomas Kinkade and a commemorative painting of Dawson County.

  

“This seemed like a good place for both,” Gibson said.

  

Kathy Davis, lead instructor at the Adult Education Center, said the donation “lets everyone know how supportive people can be.

  

“Lake has been very supportive of the program,” Davis said. “We appreciate this greatly, and it certainly makes the place look gorgeous.”

  

Members of Reading Education Association of Dawson County, as well as Wee Books, were on hand to help present the award.

  

The Adult Education Center is located at 388 Hwy. 9 North.
