Reno-Tahoe International Airport is Back

In 2013 the depARTures Gallery was unveiled on the second floor of the Reno-Tahoe International Airport in Nevada. This new gallery was the stage for their 6th Annual NAP Art Exhibit. The 1,300 square foot gallery welcomes the public to an intimate art experience during their time in the airport.  

This year, the show included 123 works of art from the airport community that were professionally displayed in their new space. The entries included some unusual pieces such as a sculpture created completely out of mechanical parts, a handmade journal, jewelry and two women’s dresses designed and stitched by the artist. A reception to celebrate all the participants was held on May 28th.  Approximately 150 guests, including Marily Mora, President/CEO for the Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority, attended the awards ceremony.

Coordinator Kim Matthews understands the impact a show like this can have on everyone involved and always executes a beautiful exhibit.  We are so pleased to have Reno-Tahoe back up and running after their brief break during construction.
