July is shaping up to be an exciting month as the w88 sports betting Libraries partners with Artown, the w88 sports betting Department of Wildlife (NDOW), award-winning w88 sports betting author and humorist Michael Branch and Closer to the Land: Environment and Ecology of w88 sports betting exhibit curator Edan Strekal.
We look forward to welcoming you, members of our community, as we host two Artown events on Saturday, July 27 at the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center. Both events are free and open to members of the campus and northern w88 sports betting community. For more information on these events, please visit Eventbrite.com and search "Closer to the Land."
Closer to the Land is currently on display outside of Special Collections and w88 sports betting Archives located on the third floor of the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center. The exhibit features written and visual materials regarding Nevada's diverse landscapes and wildlife populations from Special Collections and w88 sports betting Archives' extensive holdings of environmental collections. Additionally, it features several three-dimensional objects including skulls, specimens, and taxidermied mounts from the w88 sports betting of Nevada, Reno Museum of Natural History.
The exhibit focuses on the contrasting environments found in w88 sports betting and the Great Basin, and the relationship of the environment to its living inhabitants including humans, animals, and plants. The beauty and diversity of w88 sports betting has been described as one the nation's best kept secrets. Rather than a "wasteland," w88 sports betting is a place ripe with beauty and life hidden in the seemingly desolate landscape.
