A Twain-Inspired Fundraiser to Support the FutureTo help retire its remaining $458,000 mortgage by July 4, 2026, I-School will host a special fundraiser during Carson City’s 3rd Annual Mark Twain Days, October 16–18. On opening night—Thursday, October 16—beloved Nevada impressionist McAvoy Layne will come out of retirement to perform as Mark Twain in a one-night-only production of Mark Twain and Friends. The show begins at 7:30 PM following a 5:30 PM reception at the Brewery Arts Center.
The performance will take place next door at 511 W. King Street, in the former St. Teresa’s Catholic Church—now a striking arts venue.
In this unique theatrical experience, Twain will be joined by characters from his Carson
City days, including his friend Julia Bulette, future wife Olivia, and brother Orion—portrayed by acclaimed Chautauquan Kim Harris and student actors from Hope Academy, fresh off their summer performances at Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park.
