Matthew Tholl

Near-native Nevadan Matthew Tholl was born in South Lake Tahoe, lived in Gardnerville, and recently settled in Fallon. Earlier interests included airplane gliding, exploring Tahoe and surrounding areas by hiking, backpacking, and various water sports - but he believes he has found his true calling in photography. It wasn't until his move to Fallon in 2009 when he began taking classes in the field of criminal justice that he found photography.

 Matthew is one of our four featured artists currently on display for the month of April. Please stop by to see his beautiful photographs!

Mural!

If you haven't heard, we are planning a HUGE exciting project... a historical mural representing our town and geographical area during the early 1900's. Heck's Meat has generously donated their wall to our purpose. Please spread the word! We are looking for a huge community involvement to show our very generous friends over at Puffin Foundation West, Ltd. that the grant they awarded us is well-deserved!
