The new “Adventure Guide” for Casper and Natrona County arrived with the morning paper yesterday.
It’s chock full of adventure, which includes the arts (naturally).
The guide lists a page of arts galleries and museums, including sculptor Chris Navarro’s Gallery at 120 E. Second St., and the Nicolaysen Art Museum and Discovery Center at 400 E. Collins Dr. On the next page are cultural and fine arts activities, including the Stage III Theatre and the Wyoming Symphony Orchestra.
The guide also has a season-by-season list. Summer events include the Nic Fest June 26-28, Beartrap Summer Festival July 18-19, weekly outdoor concerts by the Casper Band, ARTCORE’s Music & Poetry Series and the Platte River Parkway Fall Festival which is technically held during summer (Sept. 12).
While in Casper, you may want to fish, kayak, hike, swim, bird-watch or just sit under a tree at one of the local parks and read a good book by a Wyoming author.
Wyomingarts usually chooses the last option.
The “Adventure Guide” is available online at http://www.casperwyoming.info.
Also see this blog’s right sidebar for links to Casper arts orgs and artists.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
