local art

The Carson Visitor’s Center has put together a great art walk pamphlet that helps you explore our downtown culture. The Legislature is home to a few rotating galleries; you’ll find lots of local art at the Brewery Arts Center; and Capital City Arts Initiative sponsors shows at the Courthouse, Community Center and in the Community Development building by City Hall. Whether you prefer indoors or outdoors activities, today has something to offer.

Join Artsy Fartsy Art Gallery for a entire day focusing on adding a bit of art to your yard. Local artists such as Angie Fluitt, Derick McClure, Kathleen Hallamore, Jean Kvam, and Lauri Christine will enchant you with their unique one-of-a-kind creations. The day will offer artwork ranging from wood carvings, pottery, chimes, repurposed art, and so much more. Drop by and meet some of the local artists, while supporting "YOUR LOCAL ART GALLERY".

This time next month our downtown will be in full bloom, but there’s plenty of cheer no matter what the season.

When Jeffery Pace moved his Artsy Fartsy Art Gallery out of the tiny cottage on West Telegraph Street last month, he selected a space close by for a reason.

"We are expanding, not moving," Pace had said.

After more than five years in the tiny cottage at 220 West Telegraph Street, Artsy Fartsy Art Gallery is now displaying its works in a new and much larger space right around the corner at 405 N. Nevada Street in downtown Carson City.

The Downtown Business Association’s monthly Wine Walk pays no heed to what the weather serves up, and this Saturday has rain on the menu. Bundle up, grab an umbrella and your friends, and brave the weather for this fun event.

As the holiday season approaches, Charlie Blim, owner of Charlie B Gallery, advises going into local shops rather than big box stores.

“I’ve got stuff made by actual humans,” he said. “All that other stuff is made by machines.”

But when customers come into his shop, he’s not pushing to make a sale. He’s got a bigger goal in mind.
“Art changed my life,” he said. “If they take the time to learn the history, learn about the artist, it could change their lives too. It’s not just about buying stuff.”
