The Stephen F. Austin State University School of Art and the Friends of the Visual Arts will present a free, one-night screening of “Queen Mimi” at 7 p.m. Friday, March 2, in The Cole Art Center @ The Old Opera House in downtown Nacogdoches.

Forced onto the streets in her 50s, Marie “Mimi” Haist found “home” at a Santa Monica laundromat. Taking shelter there for 20 years, Mimi’s passion for pink, and living without looking back, has taken her from homelessness to Hollywood’s red carpets and caused her to make some unlikely friends along the way, ranging from local loves to Hollywood A-listers Zach Galifianakis and Renee Zellweger. according to information at imdb.com.

Written and filmed over 5 years by barista/actor/director Yaniv Rokah while he worked at a cafe across the street, “Queen Mimi” is the story of an unlikely hero. Now 91, Mimi reminds viewers to never give in and never give up, and that if you ever find yourself in the gutter, to never stop looking at the stars.

The documentary runs 76 minutes.

This screening is part of the School of Art’s monthly Friday Film Series and is sponsored in part by William Arscott, Nacogdoches Film Festival, Karon Gillespie, Mike Mollot, David Kulhavy, Brad Maule, John and Kristen Heath, Galleria Z, Jill Carrington, Jean Stephens, Jim and Mary Neal, Richard Orton, Nacogdoches Junior Forum and Main Street Nacogdoches.

Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful partners with the East Texas Jeep Club again to conduct the 2018 Litter Index for Nacogdoches County.
by Katie Blevins

Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful (KNB) kicks off the 2018 Nacogdoches County Litter Index on February 20, 2018.

A litter index is a tool designed by Keep America Beautiful to visually assess the overall appearance of communities through indicators along roadways, such as litter and illegal dumping. The Nacogdoches County Litter Index is assessed by evaluating different areas in our community, including four long routes throughout the county and ten short routes within the city of Nacogdoches.

For the second year in a row, The East Texas Jeep Club (ETXJC) will join Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful to conduct the visual analysis using a scoring system ranging from 1 to 4, with “1” being the best to “4” being the worst. The 2017 Litter Index for Nacogdoches County rated 1.76.

“Our mantra with the ETXJC is to ‘leave no trace’ and to ‘wheel lightly.’ We are glad to help our community and Texas with litter abatement whenever possible,” said Ray Mitchum, Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful Chairman. “The four routes that go through the county are our specialty. We have an annual ride that runs the back roads of East Texas so we’re always looking for reasons to scout the county roads.”

According to the Keep America Beautiful website, litter is more than just a blight on our landscape. Litter is costly to clean up, impacts our quality of life and economic development, and eventually ends up in our waterways and oceans. The Keep America Beautiful Litter Index is a step-by-step method of assessing current litter conditions which is used in thousands of communities and by municipalities nationwide. The annual results are also used to develop a local plan to change attitudes and behaviors regarding litter and related issues.

For more information about Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful and the Litter Index, please visit keepnacbeautiful.org.

Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, volunteer organization that promotes beautification, waste reduction and litter prevention through individual responsibility across Nacogdoches County. Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful is a local affiliate of Keep Texas Beautiful and Keep America Beautiful. More information about Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful and the current programs can be found at keepnacbeautiful.org.
