Sheppard Fine Arts Gallery
University of Nevada Reno · Reno, Nevada
The Sheppard Fine Arts Gallery at the University of Nevada Reno presents work by students, faculty, and invited national artists across all media in a purpose-built campus gallery, serving as the primary professional exhibition venue for one of the Mountain West's most active university art programs. The gallery's programming frequently draws on the landscapes, histories, and communities of Northern Nevada — the Sierra Nevada to the west, the vast Great Basin desert to the east — for its curatorial themes. Regular exhibition openings, artist talks, and educational events connect the gallery's activities to the broader Reno arts community and give the university's creative work public visibility and context.
