Reno is Artown! Pick up an Artown Little Book at any Washoe County Library location and start planning for an action-packed July! We exhibit art in our galleries and host events throughout the month-long arts festival. "The Good Books Love Beautiful Quilts" exhibit will be on display at the Downtown Reno Library starting July 1. Multiple branches will host performances by the Reno Phil Discover Music ensembles and Young Shakespeare, which will be performing "Twelfth Night."

We will also have Story Times in Honey's Garden at the Wilbur D. May Center Arboretum Thursdays at 10 am. Please note: the dates for these Story Time events were misprinted in the Artown Little Book. The correct remaining dates are July 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31; and August 7. In addition, the "SaturYay! Color Our World: Kids' Gallery Tour & Coloring Fun with Artist Kelsey Mast" event at the Northwest Reno Library is actually scheduled for 11 am on July 19, not "July 26" as is listed in the Little Book. We apologize for any confusion.
