Join Nevada Humanities and Our Story Inc. for a conversation about the history of Black Springs, Nevada, a neighborhood located in the North Valleys, approximately six miles from downtown Reno. The 26-minute film will be followed by a panel conversation with scholars and community members. 

A Black Springs Homecoming: Finding History is a documentary film directed by Tsanavi Spoonhunter and produced by Nevada Humanities that tells the story of a small Nevada neighborhood and the ability of its residents to establish an enduring sense of community in the face of widespread racial discrimination and economic hardship. Current and former residents of Black Springs recall how the community worked together in the 1960’s and 1970’s to secure their own volunteer fire department, reliable water service, a community center and park, and more. Together with community partners, they describe ongoing efforts to strengthen the neighborhood’s identity and preserve its story for future generations.

This is a FREE program. 

In Music of a Silent World, internationally recognized Chanticleer sings the songs of the natural world. Each movement represents a different part of the Sierra Nevada’s natural beauty, from its mountains to its forests, rocks, rivers, and snowbanks. This program centers around a new arrangement of Majel Connery’s, The Rivers are our Brothers, co-commissioned by Chanticleer and Musica Sierra. The work was first performed in the Sierra Valley as part of Musica Sierra’s Musical Headwaters program in 2021. In the spirit of educational collaboration, local school groups participate in the performance of The Rivers are our Brothers. This particular performance will feature University of Nevada, Reno’s Chamber Chorale.

Chanticleer, a multiple Grammy award-winning vocal ensemble, has been presented by some of the largest musical organizations in the country, including the Chicago Symphony and the LA Philharmonic. Founded in San Francisco in 1978 by singer and musicologist Louis Botto, Chanticleer has sold over one million recordings and performed thousands of live concerts to audiences around the world. Chanticleer’s repertoire is rooted in the renaissance and has continued to expand to include a wide range of classical, gospel, jazz, and popular music.

*Doors open at 6 pm with cash bar

This program is presented as part of UPSTAGE: A Literary and Performing Art Series supported by the Nightingale Family Foundation and the Williams Foundation
