The public is invited to celebrate student artists at the second annual Landmark Arts Project reception located in the former City Hall building at the top of Boot Hill.
Boot Hill Distillery will host a reception for the exhibiting artists in partnership with the Ford County Historical Society on Thursday, May 9 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at 501 W Spruce Street. Area youth were provided with historical information and tours of the location to educate and inspire the production of artwork.
Participating schools will each receive $500 for art supplies. Awards will be presented at the reception.
Families are welcome! In addition to charcuterie and desserts, mocktails and other nonalcoholic beverages will be served. Music will be provided by the Dodge City Community College Jazz Band.
Submissions will be on display at Boot Hill Distillery through May 9.
Funding for this project was provided by the Community Foundation of Southwest Kansas, City of Dodge City Public Art Program, and Main Street Dodge City.
