East 4th Street Community Forum

Join the City of Reno and Nevada Humanities on September 8 at 12:00 pm to learn about the E. 4th Street Public Art Project and meet the three finalist artists/artist teams.

The City of Reno received a National Endowment for the Arts Our Town Grant in the fall of 2019 to support community engagement and public art creation commemorating the City of Reno’s East 4th Street District.

After a series of initial community engagement sessions and input collection, we have three finalist artists who will be speaking with the community and learning about E. 4th Street. After these community conversations, the artists will submit a proposal for artwork and an artist or artist team will be chosen to move forward with the project. 

Come meet the artists and learn about the history of E. 4th Street! Alicia Barber, PhD and Director of the 4th Street/Prater Way History Project, will give a historical overview of the area and engage the three finalist artists/artist teams in a discussion. The community is encouraged to join, ask questions, and interact with the artists.

This event is an opportunity for the community to learn about the E. 4th Street Public Art Project and give input on the E. 4th Street area.
