Happy Holidays to Carson City Nevada Government Mayor Pro-Tem and Cultural Commissioner Karen Abowd! I dusted off my sewing machine to make her a Burning Man inspired Holiday Stocking as a memento of thanks for her leadership in the arts.

City staff then filled it with holiday goodies while the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Nevada donated their creativity to make a banner and snowflakes!
