Thursday, Oct. 19: Things to do in Carson City
The weekend is almost here, bringing with it early Halloween parties, the Advocates to End Domestic Violence ‘Light up the Dark’ Run/walk, and even more fun at the Nevada Railroad Museum. For now, you may as well enjoy the day we’ve been given. Head over to the Nevada Artists Association gallery for your last look at the Autumn show. Their next exhibition, the Annual Nevada Day judged show, will be up for display on Sunday. Silver City is welcoming their autumn Artist in Residence with a reception this evening. Everyone is invited to the meet and greet with New Zealand artist, Sophie Scott.
