Cultural Commissioner Karen Abowd honored for leadership in the arts with creative tribute
Happy Holidays to Carson City Nevada Government Mayor Pro-Tem and Cultural Commissioner Karen Abowd! I dusted off my sewing machine to make her a Burning Man inspired Holiday Stocking as a memento of thanks for her leadership in the arts.
City staff then filled it with holiday goodies while the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Nevada donated their creativity to make a banner and snowflakes! At today's Board of Supervisors meeting, Karen's last of 2018, the community, in unison, thanked and acknowledged her tireless efforts in creating a better cultural landscape for Carson City.
Thank you Karen! And thank you Mayor Robert Crowell for the opportunity to highlight the arts in today's meeting.
Carson City Cultural Commission Vice Chair Barb D'Anneo, Capital City Arts Initiative Executive Director Sharon Gillespie Rosse, Nevada Artists Association President Fred Howland, and artist Carol Brown were in attendance.
