The Churchill Arts Council will present a free Concert in the Park on Saturday, Aug. 16, featuring bluegrass ensemble Della Mae. The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. on the Centennial Stage at Oats Park.

Known for their dynamic blend of bluegrass, folk, and Americana, Della Mae is a Grammy-nominated, all-woman string band celebrated for high-energy performances and rich musical storytelling. The group features founding members Celia Woodsmith (lead vocals, guitar) and two-time Grand National champion fiddle player Kimber Ludiker, along with guitarist Avril Smith and two-time IBMA Bass Player of the Year Vickie Vaughn.

In addition to the evening concert, the Churchill Arts Council will host several arts-focused events at the Oats Park Art Center throughout the day:

  • 8–10 a.m. – Community breakfast in the Lariat Courtyard, hosted by the City of Fallon
  • 10 a.m.–Noon – Tours of the historic Oats Park Art Center
  • 6–7:30 p.m. – Closing reception for The Lahontan Valley Fine Arts Invitational and Reid Sewell: A Journey in Art
  • The Art Bar will be open during the reception, and the Lariat Bar will be open during the concert
  • Show-n-Shine classic car display in front of the Art Center during the day

These festivities are part of the Annual Community-Wide Reunion, a weekend-long celebration that brings together friends, families, and neighbors for music, memories, and shared pride in the Fallon community.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
