U.S. Bank’s support of Artown goes beyond July with the recent donation of 60 tickets for the Washoe County high school orchestra students to the Encore Artown event, Itzhak Perlman. The young music enthusiasts are provided a once in a lifetime experience to attend this live performance in the classical tradition and gain a greater appreciation for music as a fine art.
Every high school in the Washoe County School District was provided with tickets to the performance. Students were selected from honor orchestra members or students in each school’s music program. Thanks to U.S. Bank’s contribution, more than 50 students will attend the extraordinary performance, some with a parent or loved one.
U.S. Bank is an annual Artown festival sponsor supporting youth participation in the arts, notably with the children’s mural showcased each July.
