The month of July brings Reno’s Artown to life.
As a part of this event the Northern Nevada
Dairymen sponsor the children’s program “Discover Art”. Through this program children are introduced
to all kinds of arts: visual, writing,
acting, singing, dancing and painting to name a few. There is no cost for the kids to
participate. Events include a teaching
session and a hands-on project each day, Monday through Friday.
The Northern Nevada Dairymen have supported this event for
10 years. It has grown each year from a
few hundred participants to several hundred participants. The original venue was Wingfield Park and now
extends throughout the Truckee Meadows.
With the help of Model Dairy the dairymen provide milk or
ice cream to participants at least once a week.
Here we have a picture of the kick-off event. Cowabunga with her new friends Thumper and
