Carlini has worked on large public art projects and murals, which include a mural for PALS Brewing Company and the Connection Homeless Shelter,  Paws on the Platte - painted dog sculptures as a benefit for Pawsitive Partners Humane Society.   She also created a "Only Rain down the Drain" public art project through Keep America Beautiful - which focused on sidewalk murals and clean water.  She also worked with the North Platte Public and Catholic Schools to develop and create bottle cap murals in the buildings.  Murals have become a highlight for Carlini, as she developed and created  #inspiringwingsnp.  This public art project brings attention to local nonprofits and local artists, as they create a theme and message into photo opportunities for the public.

 

Carlini is the Executive Director at the Prairie Arts Center, a working art center that focuses on bringing cultural arts to Western Nebraska.  Here she is able to teach art classes to adults, kids, kids camps, Alternative Therapy classes to sexual assault and domestic violence survivors, and special needs classes.  If there’s one thing that Carlini has learned in her career—it’s that art is an outlet, it gives you a voice and a sense of peace.
