October Wine Walk is Something Special
Every first Saturday in Carson City downtown teems with happy people from all over the region for the Downtown Business Association's Wine Walk. Rain or shine, all year long, more than 30 local businesses open their doors for the influx of visitors seeking wine, a nosh, and perhaps something from a quirky boutique. Ten dollars will get you a Carson City logoed wine glass, a raffle ticket, a hand stamp, and a map. You can sign up at Bella Fiore Wines, Carson Jewelry and Loan, The Horseshoe Club, The Carson Nugget, Cactus Jacks Casino, or Touched by an Angel between 1:00pm and 5:00pm.
This month, however, there is a lot more to the wine walk than wine. The Carson City Visitor’s Center will be showing off its new office at 716 N. Carson Street, just next door to the Nevada State Museum. The Museum is hosting five authors that afternoon for a meet and greet and book-signing, noon until 3:00pm, so stop in and say hello to Patrick Betson, Jackie Boor-Logan, Guy ‘Redcorn’ Nixon, Stan Paher, and Janet Geary. Also hosting an author is Morley’s Books at the corner of Curry and King Streets; Sandie LeNae will be signing copies of her books showcasing Nevada’s haunted history. Shop Small Northern Nevada is having a vendor event on Rice Street, the northern most edge of the walking tour; check out booths from local small businesses and say hello to the staff at the Tap-Shack and Mama Em’s Bell, Book, and Candle. Not to be missed is ‘Artistically INKlined,’ an art show featuring the talents of local tattoo artists; you’ll find their artwork hanging on the wall (on paper and canvas, not skin) at the Westside Pour House on W. Telegraph St. until 8pm. Due Sorella welcomes you to their Second Annual Vintage Fall Harvest Faire in the large parking lot behind their shop at 202 N. Curry St. from 9:00am until 4:00pm.
The weather is predicted to be nearly 80 degrees and sunny, so head downtown Saturday, Oct. 4, and drink in some wine, some sun, and good feelings.
