Renoentertainment for all

Reno is home to the “wildest, richest rodeo in the West” according to the slogan of the Reno Rodeo, a10-day professional rodeo sanctioned by the Professonal Rodeo Cowboys Association that draws more than 140,000 rodeo fans to Reno every June.

Reno is quite the arts town; the city displays 45 pieces of outdoor public art and 62 art pieces in the City Hall collection. Sierra Arts—part gallery, part art school, part craft fair—fuels a lively gallery scene in Reno, with classes, community grants and other projects.

The University of Reno offers one of only two Basque Studies programs in the United States as well as the National Judicial College. The university was also named one of the top 200 colleges in the country, according to a U.S. News and World Report ranking.

The Reno Music Project operates a collective calendar that makes it easy to find live music of all tastes and styles, any night of the week: http://www.renomusicproject.com/LiveMusicVenues2011.shtml
