PAC artist wanted to paint kiosk mural

The Pahrump Tourism Advisory Board (PTAB) is asking for a Pahrump Arts Council volunteer artist to paint a mural on the outside wall of the tourist information kiosk located at the Bob Ruud Community Center.

This is a volunteer effort, not a paid position. The PTAB will reimburse the artist for all materials required for the mural. The size of the wall is 8 by 20 feet with a center peak of 10 feet, 6 inches.

The PTAB requires a drawing of planned murals. Drawings may be submitted in pencil, ink, charcoal or paste, black and white or color to Kari Frilot (also a member of the PTAB) at the Pahrump Chamber of Commerce. Drawings may be mailed to: Pahrump Chamber of Commerce, P.O. Box 42, 2nd Floor, Pahrump, Nev. 89041.

Today is the last day to submit drawings.

Contact Jan at 751-5282 for more information.
