From 2003 – 2025, CCAI presented art exhibitions in four Carson City Galleries, commissioned exhibition essays, hosted an online speaker series, shared the exhibit videos on YouTube, and worked with our high school and college partners to present their students’ art to the public.
We believe the arts build community.
