The University of Nevada, Reno invites art lovers to spend the beginning of the Valentine's weekend at the biannual Valentine's w88 online casino Friday, Feb. 12, in the Student Galleries South venue in the Jot Travis Building on campus.

"It's an opportunity for our region's citizens to collect work from local artists that they love, and from artists who have international recognition," Director of University w88 online casino Paul Baker Prindle said.

In previous years, as many as 700 people attended the event, and more than ,000 was raised in 2014. It is the biggest fundraiser for the w88 online casino's Museum of Art, and proceeds from the silent w88 online casino go directly back to its programs.

"It makes it possible for us to pay w88 online casino workers who get hands-on training in the field that they want to go into," Baker Prindle said. "It also allows us to take care of the collection and keep it conserved and clean. And allows us to offer field trips to area schools."

University w88 online casino is responsible for the care of the department's permanent art collection of about 3,000 objects.

"Unfortunately, there is not a lot of funding for collection care these days," Baker Prindle said. "So if we want to preserve our collection, we have to raise the money to take care of it. It allows our current students and future generations of students to study objects by internationally important artists through our history."

This year's Valentine's w88 online casino theme is inspired by the Banquet Room of the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, England. Student Galleries South will be transformed with crystal chandeliers and red and gold wall treatments. Artwork priced from to ,000 is available. More than 100 pieces will be on the w88 online casino block.

Attendees can expect to see works from Joan Arrizabalaga, faculty members Michael Sarich and Tamara Scronce, as well as other well-known artists represented by Stremmel Gallery. This year, a tribute exhibition also will display works from Twinkie artist and lifelong Valentine's w88 online casino supporter, Nancy Peppin, who died in June.

"What is great is that you can get artwork that you might not be able to afford otherwise, while supporting the work of the University w88 online casino," Baker Prindle said.

A preview can be seen online at the museum's Instagram account.
