Sierra Arts Resource Directory

Resource Directory Questionnaire - Help us identify our community's creative needs and resources!
If you are involved in the arts, fill out the questionnaire for inclusion in the directory!

__________

The arts express the passions and perspectives of the people who live in this community. They encompass music, painting, poetry, creative writing, dance, theater and sculpture. Sierra Arts is dedicated to encouraging and enabling this creativity.

Since 1971, we have been a regional arts agency promoting and supporting the arts and artists in our community to make this a better place to live. We provide leadership, support, programming and education.

The Sierra Gallery, located at 17 S. Virginia Street in Reno, is home to the organization.

Sierra Arts develops events that exemplify our advocacy, resources, teaching and support for the culture in our community. The success of events such as the annual Brew HaHa dancing and microbrew fest, the annual black tie Night of Arts and Oscars and multi-cultural events show Sierra Arts' commitment to the importance of entertainment and cultural diversity in our community.

Join us is support of the arts in our region. Sierra Arts members enjoy such benefits as direct mailing of our monthly guide to the area's arts, Sierra Arts Magazine, as well as invitations to the Sierra Arts holiday party, a discount on purchases made at Nevada Fine Art, and more. Join today!
