Carli discussed many types of environmental art and set the stage for inspiration for projects of public art right here in Natrona County.

Riverfest a signature event + the biggest fundraiser of the year for our organization. This beloved community event includes a regional beer tasting, food trucks, live music, family friendly activities, shopping booths plus the Rotary Club of Casper's Great Duck Derby. We are sad we can't gather this year but look forward to seeing you at Riverfest next year!
|
Canceled for 2020Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we're sad to say that the 2020 Riverfest has been canceled.
With the loss of our biggest fundraiser, we appreciate everyone that still supported PRTT by purchasing tickets to the 2020 Virtual Great Duck Derby. As a long-time partner, we're happy to share in a portion of the proceeds, which will help fund out ongoing trail projects. |
