New WSM calendar

“West Street Sundays” were added to the new West Street Market calendar. More events to be added this week! Follow us on Twitter to see upcoming news at www.twitter.com/renowsm.

Not Your Typical Farmer’s Market

“West Street Sundays” is a brand new feature at the West Street Market. It starts this Sunday, June 13 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and will be held on every Sunday through September 26.

What is “West Street Sundays?” It features a Farmer’s Market where you can buy the freshest locally grown produce and much more. You can have brunch, listen to live music, have drinks, snacks and even take in a wonderful array of fresh produce.
 
The West Street Market is a Reno Redevelopment project that created new opportunities for small local businesses, local farmers and local programs as well as a number of local artisans and performers. The urban market has an eco-friendly theme that serves as a community gathering and the Market is still growing.
 
The Redevelopment project vastly improved the area restoring two dilapidated, vacant historic buildings transforming the block from an undesirable area into one where families, students, senior citizens and downtown residents can grab a bite, enjoy a cup of coffee glass or glass of wine, or sit outside and listen to live music or watch a performance.
 
The Market is open seven days a week and is located on West Street between First and Second Streets.  
***Free validated parking is available at the Parking Gallery on First Street 7 days a week.

Tentet Jazz Event

NYC-based saxophonist/composer Nathan Parker Smith leads an imaginative jazz tentet with a regular engagement at the West Village’s Fat Cat, one of New York’s most frequented jazz haunts.

During a rare stopover in Reno, Smith will give a performance of his work with an all-star cast of Reno’s finest, including Peter Epstein, Tony Cataldo, Leonard Niedhold, Andy Heglund, and Hans Halt. Bassist Sam Minaie – another current New Yorker and Reno-native – opens the show alongside David Ake, Paul Roth, Caleb Dolister, and guest trumpeter Louis Laurain from Paris, France.

Start Time: 8 p.m.
Date: December 20, 2009
