Photos by Ron Eland/Boulder City Review

Tens of thousands of art enthusiasts flocked to Boulder City this past weekend for the 61st Art in the Park, sponsored by the Boulder City Hospital Foundation. In all, more than 300 artists turned out.

In addition to all the art, attendees enjoyed a wide variety of food trucks.

More than 300 artists were on hand this year, including Nicholas Ivins, who ended up being one of this year’s award winners.

Near-perfect weather greeted the tens of thousands of visitors last weekend.

Glasswork was one of many mediums offered at the event.

Decrease in tourists could affect budget

Eagle-eyed followers of city government may have noticed multiple references by city officials over the past year to expect shortfalls in the Boulder City budget over the next few years. It is a fact of life for city staff, and the big decrease in tourism to the region is poised to make the situation even more dire.
