In fact, you might not even notice it as you have your fun on C Street. I did as this is the sort of gallery I look for when I'm visiting from out-of-town. The Gallery is located on the ground floor of what looks like a 2-story house. The space consists of a big room that makes you think you've walked into an Inuit Art Gallery (with some nice Alaska-made baskets thrown in). A smaller room off the main one features local Nevada Artists. I found a nice one (Floating Horizon by Donna Nelson - who lives in the Smith Valley) at a very nice price (and framed)! The woman overseeing the place during my visit was very knowledgably about many of the pieces, and I appreciated the associated education. My only surprise was my viewing of an out-of-place "Nevada Patriots" poster featuring Mt. Rushmore, including what appeared to be the face of a very recent ex-President. Oy. I'm resigned to the fact that I now live in a Red part of the Country, but those related "shake my head" cult moments just seem to keep coming.

However if we're in Carson we always stop in and have a look around! They support many local artists in the area with their goods in their store. I absolutely love the homemade soap!! The bars are $10 -12 absolutely worth it!!! I bought 7 bars of soap today, two bars for my husband to take to NZ for his Mom & sister and the others for my friends I'll see next weekend in Virginia City! Who doesn't like a pretty soap with amazing smells. Definitely if you're in the area make sure and stop by and find a treasure to take home or for a love one. They'll love it!!!

I stopped in last week on an anniversary trip with my husband. After seeing real wild horses around town, I fell in love with a matted and framed photograph of two horses "kissing." It was a great find for just $60.00. Also, came home and decided to buy one more larger shot of a group of wild horses in the sagebrush.this one is going on the living room wall. Both pictures will always remind me of the wild and rugged beauty of the high Nevada desert. A must stop if you are in the area looking for a special keepsake from this region.

The atmosphere is cool as it's kind of like an industrial storefront in the Dickerson road arts district. Lots of cool arts stuff outside. I was driving by and I was like, yes, this must be the gallery. I visited the group art show to check it out and it all looked great. Didn't make the opening as I'm shy, sober and socially awkward but heard it went well. I hear Reno Art Works has art classes in the space which seems pretty awesome too. What a great community arts resource!

If you're looking to get a little culture or are an artist looking for a space to create, this is the place for you.

Unfortunately, because volunteers run the gallery and they are busy working, some unscrupulous visitors take advantage and steal works or switch price stickers to buy at lower pricing when the volunteers aren't watching. These people are really low hanging fruit, stealing art from seniors that are only trying to make a little extra income. I hope the art they steal gives them intense guilt every time they look at it. If you like what you see while visiting, pay the asking price. You support the artists and the gallery, and will enjoy the art immensely for years.
