The Capital City Arts Initiative presents its exhibition, Lockdown, with art by Paula Chung, Nancy Raven, and Ted Rips at Western Nevada College’s Bristlecone Gallery, 2201 W College Parkway, Carson City. The exhibition will be in the gallery from October 5 – December 22, 2021. CCAI and WNC will host an artists’ reception on Tuesday, October 5, 5 – 6:30 pm; artist introductions at 5:30 pm — the public is cordially invited.

This exhibition, titled Lockdown, presents work made by three artists during the 2020 COVID-19 crisis. Each artist began their project either as a way to memorialize the ongoing COVID deaths, to protect themselves from the lockdown’s isolation, or just as a way to keep busy — or all three.
