Is it Spring Yet?.... We're used to it by now, so we're not gonna let a little snow stop us from getting out to enjoy our beautiful region, right?! Check out our April Events Calendar! In addition to a multitude of jams and learning opportunities, there are some amazing artists coming to visit, including the Edgar Loudermilk Band, the fiddle -guitar duo, Sara Milonovich and Greg Anderson and Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas. And, although the Reno Earth Day event has been discontinued, here's a couple outdoor events to enjoy our beautiful planet with -- Tahoe Truckee Earth Day will feature Red Dirt Ruckus and the Genoa Western Heritage Days will feature free street music in the daytimes, ticketed shows at night, and lots of horses, people in costumes, western crafts, food and fun! And finally, even though they won't be here until July, Nickel Creek is coming to Reno and tickets are still available! Get Outside (but wear layers!) |
