Notorious Nevadans

Happy Saturday Carson City! It’s going to be a hot, sunny summer day in the capital city with a high of 94. We’ve got a ton of great events to attend, so make sure to bring some sunscreen!

Here’s what we have planned for the rest of the weekend:

Saturday, August 3

Heading into the weekend, there’s a bevy of activities around the Carson City region over the next three days, including Hot August Nights Kickoff Rallies in Virginia City, history walks at Mormon Station Park, pickleball at the Carson City MAC, concerts at the Brewery Arts Center and TJ’s Corral, a Muscle Powered Sunday morning bike ride and more!

An uncirculated 1883 Carson City Morgan silver dollar will highlight a raffle during the Friends of the Nevada State Museum fundraiser on Saturday, August 3.

The annual fundraiser for the Friends of the Nevada State Museum is set for Saturday, August 3. Member Judi Miller has created another fabulous quilt to be raffled off at the Night with Notorious Nevadans – The Mint Edition fundraising event.

Join the Friends of the Nevada State Museum on Saturday, August 3 for an evening of Chautauqua in the Nevada Room of the Governor’s Mansion in Carson City. The event will celebrate the remarkable history of the United States Mint in Carson City and the Nevada State Museum.

Early June events will launch the 2019 Summer Festival at the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park in Douglas County.

The Friends of the Nevada State Museum thanks everyone who attended, donated to, and participated in the sold out and overwhelmingly successful performance of their original production of A Night with Notorious Nevadans.

History comes alive Aug. 3 at the Governor's Mansion in Carson City. Spend an evening with some of the Notorious Nevadans that shaped our great state.

The Friends of the Nevada State Museum will share the histories of some notable Nevadans on Friday, August 3, 2018 when they premiere A Night of Notorious Nevadans.
