Here's what's happening Monday:
— Capital City Arts exhibit ‘Saludos Amigos’ begins Monday. 8 a.m. The Capital City Arts Initiative presents its exhibition, "Saludos Amigos", by artist Justin Favela at the CCAI Courthouse Gallery. Favela will install his work with community assistance from Sept. 30 to Oct. 4. CCAI will host an opening reception on Friday, Oct. 4, 5-7 p.m.; the artist will give a brief talk about his work at 5:30pm. The exhibition will be in the gallery from Oct. 4, 2019 – January 29, 2020. The Courthouse is located at 885 E Musser Street, Carson City. The reception and the exhibition are free and the public is cordially invited. The gallery is open Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.. In this installation, Favela will collage imagery from famous animated films that depict Latin American culture. Using his signature "piñata style" Favela will make large scale murals with tissue paper and glue that will break down images from films like “The Three Caballeros”, “The Emperor's New Groove” and “Coco”. These films celebrate Latin American culture but through the investigation of the imagery, Favela will highlight the exoticism and Hollywood fantasy that falsely represents an entire culture.
— Capital City Arts Initiative Presents: Constellation. 8 a.m. The Capital City Arts Initiative (CCAI) presents its exhibition, Constellation. Nine students from the University of Nevada Reno’s Bachelor of Fine Arts program have work in the exhibit. The free exhibition is available to the public now through Dec. 10, 2019 on Mondays – Fridays, 8:00 a.m. – noon and 1:00-4:00 p.m. The artists include Rachael Blizzard, Tessa Clawson, Josh Galarza, Robert Ibarra, Sandra Kramp, Carla Miller, Cesar Piedra, Shara Sinatra, and Amber Skilling.

— Open studio basic painting at the Brewery Arts Center. 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 449 W. King Street. Students will work on their own paintings from subject matter they have chosen. The instructor, Mark Tompkins, will work one-on-one with each student to help them complete their project from start to finish. Each student must supply their own materials. Students may choose to paint in either water colors, oils, or acrylic paints.
— State Treasurer to speak at Carson City Democratic luncheon. 11:30 a.m. Featured speaker at Monday's Democratic luncheon will be Nevada State Treasurer Zach Conine. A native of New York, in 2003 Conine earned his bachelor's degree from Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration, and in 2013 he completed his JD from UNLV's William S. Boyd School of Law. The first chapter of Zach's business career was as Director of Operations at the Golden Nugget in Downtown Las Vegas, where he was responsible for more than 2,000 employees. The next chapter began as an investment analyst before joining a major gaming company as Chief Business Development Officer, where he oversaw hundreds of millions of dollars of construction. The most recent chapter was as co-founder of Joseph Beare & Company, a consultancy that helps small and medium sized businesses succeed by expanding revenue, decreasing expenses, and solving problems. He took that organizational experience to the public sector when he was sworn in as Nevada's 23rd State Treasurer on January 7, 2019. This event is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. on Monday, September 30th, at the Carson City Round Table Pizza, 3325 Retail Drive just off College Parkway. Sponsored by the Democratic Men’s Committee, these luncheons help keep the lights on at Carson City’s Democratic HQ. An all-you-can-eat pizza and salad bar lunch buffet is available for $7.99.
