Thanksgiving Day
The Museum is closed today in observance of Thanksgiving Day.
Sunday Brunch
Sunday Brunch at the Café is the perfect precursor to an afternoon exploring our galleries. Chef Colin Smith has updated the menu to include an eclectic array of options from traditional breakfast fare to lunch options–both of which pair nicely with juice, coffee, champagne or a mimosa. Doors open at 10:30 am and service continues until 2:30 pm. Reservations are required for parties of five or more, but encouraged for all as space is limited. Museum members receive 10% savings as a benefit of membership. Call the Café at 775.284.2921 for more information.

Griff Durham on Maynard Dixon’s 1901 Nevada Horseback Journey
In 1901, Maynard Dixon and his artist-friend Edward Borein rode horseback from Oakland, California, into Carson City, Nevada, on the first leg of an epic thousand-mile-ride through the northern Great Basin. Along the way, both men sketched and studied cowboy life and the ranches they visited. Join Griff Durham as he traces their journey through northwestern Nevada, northeastern California, and Southern Oregon, with a special focus on their illustrations. Griff Durham is an historian who has been interested in cowboy horse gear and Great Basin ranching traditions for over 50 years and has guest curated and consulted on exhibitions at the Western Folklife Center in Elko, NV.
