Summer art camp has officially started! ☀️😊

On the first day of our Sun and Sea camp, our budding artists created their own beach collage, made a painting of shells, and many other summer-y things in between. We just love how happy and proud everyone is with their artworks!

Now, we’re excited to see what else they’ll make with their teaching artist, Miss Cheryl Johnson.

So fun! 😎🐚😁

Making rainbows with our friends from Amplify Life! 🌈🥰

Wednesday spent sweetly as our friends from Amplify Life came over to paint their own tropical rainbow beach paradise - of course, guided by our teaching artist Sophie Ralston, with help from our intern, Shealyn!

Big thanks to Kennedy and Taylor, and Amplify Life's amazing volunteers for helping out too!

See you again soon! ❤️

The first week of the Colors of Work exhibition went by so quick!

Thank you to all who came to celebrate the intern-artists of Transition Academy 😊

Colors of Work exhibition features artworks that show their unique perspective on livelihood: what motivates them, what challenges them, and what brings them pride.

The artists displayed in this exhibition are all young adults with intellectual and cognitive disabilities who are actively preparing their next steps through vocational training, career exploration, and workplace readiness.

Under the guidance of our teaching artist, Anne Hunter, the interns have created a vibrant collection of mixed media works.

Colors of Work will run from June 1 to July 9, Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm at the McKinley Arts Center (West Gallery).

We would like to thank the Transition Academy, Washoe County School District, and Reno Big Arts Little City for this wonderful partnership.

Artist at the Mansion! ❤️

Thank you, Amadour, for stopping by the Lake Mansion.

It was wonderful to welcome you and learn more about your work. We love and are proud of you being a Sparks/Reno home-grown talent, now conquering the art scene internationally, and are excited about the possibility of working together in the future.

If you haven't already, be sure to check out Amadour's solo exhibition, 'Amadour: Nevada Proscenium' at the TMCC Main Gallery, on view through June 18. It explores Nevada's history, from the Comstock Lode and Virginia City's mining systems to the stories of Latinx, immigrant, and working-class communities who helped shape our state.

Best of luck with the exhibition, and may you continue to inspire many of our youth to create and love art! 😊
