Issue: January 17, 2013
Hi everybody,
Local artists roam the streets of Reno in search of paintable surfaces, as
well as gallery space for work and play. This week's cover story reaches
into the local art scene, exploring the needs of various artists to find
affordable work space in downtown Reno.
Local kitties and puppies may be neutered because you have Animal
Appreciation license plates from the state of Nevada DMV. In News, read
about how much money is raised every year through specialty and vanity
plates---it's more money than you think.
Our Green pages are driving information about the use of biodiesel fuels,
as well as blowing a story your way about how much electricity is produced
at the wind farm near Ely. And put on your red shirt before visiting a few
local bars in search of E Clampus Vitus in the Arts & Culture feature.
Be sure to pick a newsprint copy of the paper for exclusive columns,
cartoons and fishwrap.
Thanks for reading! If it weren't for you, we'd be lost in space.
