Carson City, NV — For the very first time, the public is invited to experience the dramatic charcoal murals of Nevada artist R. Merle Trehal, presented by the Carson City Historical Society.
The special exhibit will open on Friday, October 24, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the Carriage House, adjacent to the Foreman-Roberts House Museum, 1207 North Carson Street. Admission is free, light refreshments will be served, and donations are encouraged to support the Society’s preservation and education efforts.
Trehal’s large-scale works were originally created for the Nevada Appeal during the United States Bicentennial, capturing the “Wild, Wild West—Nevada Style!” and the enduring promise of the Great American Dream.
In perfect harmony with this year’s Nevada Day theme, the exhibit offers a timely and powerful glimpse into the state’s frontier heritage through the eyes of one of Nevada’s most distinctive artists.
