A Cultural Affair
From the Reno Chamber Orchestra and Reno Philharmonic to a multitude of art galleries and performing arts venues, Northern Nevada has more than its fair share of culture. The Nevada Museum of Art and Artown, a month-long summer art festival, attract nationally and internationally known artists across all media, as do the area hotel casinos and frequent festivals. Here, culture comes by way of rich, local talent and household names, by way of everything from international ballet companies to the Reno Rodeo.
