Nevada Museum of Art
About This Museum
Tucked right in the heart of downtown Reno, the Nevada Museum of Art stands as a striking geometric landmark against the high desert sky. It’s a place that feels both of its environment and distinctly apart from the casino buzz just blocks away. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully curated mix that challenges the traditional 'Western art' label, pushing into provocative contemporary works and profound meditations on our relationship with land. This isn't a sleepy gallery; it's a vibrant cultural hub that consistently surprises.
Collection Highlights
The museum's soul might just be its renowned Center for Art + Environment, which delves deep into how we alter our surroundings. Alongside this, you can lose yourself in powerful black-and-white landscapes or encounter bold modern installations that fill entire rooms.
Visitor Information
It's easy to find at 160 West Liberty Street, and while you're there, don't miss the rooftop sculpture garden—the views of the city and surrounding mountains are worth the price of admission alone.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a dramatic piece of art, a sculptural stack of black boxes inspired by the layered rock formations and deep canyons of Nevada.
