Once every two years, one of the largest groups of artists in Douglas County come together to display the work they have been creating. This exhibit is known to have on display everything from stained glass shining through the windows to clay sculptures and wood-turned vessels, along with breathtaking paintings and plenty of surprises between. The exhibit will be on display from May 9 to June 23, with an opening reception on May 26, from 6:00-8:00 pm, hosted by the Rotary Club of Douglas County.
What better time to show off some awesome, unique, antique, and detailed cars, trucks, and motorcycles than a fun day out with family and friends at a car show. This event is FREE to participate and attend. Whether you wish to bring your car and participate in the show, request to be a food vendor, or want to just come and see all the day has to offer, we invite you to get information ahead of time and make this a day for the whole family. You only spend money if you purchase from a food vendor. This is a new community outreach effort to show how we want our community to be one with us. Let’s have a fun-filled day together!
We do ask participants to pre-register so that we will know how much space is needed.
Want to have fun with the family? Come out for this fun filled day in the park of games, crafts food and activities for all to enjoy.
