         IN RECOGNITION OF THE LEXINGTON ARTS & SCIENCE CENTER

                                  _____
                                 

                             HON. ANDY BARR

                              of kentucky

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 17, 2014

  Mr. BARR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Living Arts and 
Science Center of Lexington, Kentucky on the groundbreaking of their 
new facility, the ``Lucille Caudill Little Discovery Center.''
  The Living Arts & Science Center, LASC, was created as a not-for-
profit organization in 1968 to provide opportunities for exploration 
and education in the arts and sciences. Since then, the LASC has become 
a stimulating force and creative resource for Central Kentuckians. 
Through dynamic arts and science programming, the LASC has fostered 
exploration and inspired creativity among children and adults, schools, 
and organizations around the region. With the addition of the ``Lucille 
Caudill Little Discovery Center,'' the LASC will now be able to offer 
even more hands-on learning opportunities with additional science and 
art classrooms, as well as a Digital Art Studio and a Clay Studio.
  The Living Arts & Science Center is especially important to me as it 
has hosted my annual Congressional Art Competition for the past two 
years. I am proud to see this organization expand to offer more 
programs and activities centered on arts and science. I commend them 
for their dedication to education and community outreach, and know this 
expansion will further enhance the Sixth District members' 
understanding and appreciation for the arts and sciences.
