We will be unveiling a new display on the topic of Nevada Divorce Ranches. Did you know that we had several Divorce/Dude Ranches here within the Pyramid Lake Paiute Indian Reservation? Did you know there was an airport in Sutcliffe that often brought in the Rich and Famous divorce seekers? Did you know the local Paiute Indians were a featured dance event for divorce seekers? Did you know the Dude Ranches tailored their activities to give a Wild West experience?
Come and learn more about the Divorce Industry in Nevada. It saved the State of Nevada’s economy during the Great Depression years. The display is based on the dissertation of Dr. Audrey Andrews-Huber. Her research report is entitled, “Six Weeks in the High Desert: The Historical Archaeology of Reno Divorce Ranches.” Dr. Audrey Andrews-Huber will be at the museum to answer questions, along with invited guests who contributed to the research.
Come join us on Oct. 9th 2026 at 3:00pm
