Desert Threads

Ready for something completely different? If you're comfortable in a rough and tumble atmosphere and want some great loud music and cold beer, then Davidson's Distillery is the perfect hangout for you. There's always music, whether on stage or from the jukebox, and bikers and other tough characters frequent what may be Reno's loudest best-kept secret.

So if you've hit the casinos, shows and other attractions on the ground and you're still hungry for a thrill, the only way to go is up! As in up in a plane to skydive back to earth. The professionals at Skydive Lake Tahoe will prepare you with a detailed training session and then outfit you so that your extreme sports experience is everything you expected and so much more!

Reno Open Studios offers a unique opportunity to tour local artists' studios to watch them create their different work using different mediums. See examples of painting, printmaking, pottery, weaving and jewelry making and maybe even try your hand at creating a masterpiece of your own. This tour also includes a visit to the Nevada Museum of Art.
