In each session you will:

Learn the fundamentals – the construct of a cocktail

Enjoy 3 cocktails – 2 made by us and one that you craft yourself

Learn the history of that month’s focus cocktail

Learn both the classic version and our “perfect” version of the cocktail

Get behind the bar and use your new skills and knowledge to make yourself a proper cocktail.

Lord Huron
2023-05-25 19:00 | Grand Sierra Resort, 2500 E 2nd St, Reno, NV
With its roots in Michigan, Lord Huron founder Ben Schneider began the act as a solo project and then invited members to come and form that band – what would become Lord Huron we know today. The band found its breakthrough when its single “The Night We Met” from their 2015 album “Strange Trails” became a viral hit after its feature on the Netflix series “13 Reasons Why”. Sending shivers and causing tears for their emotional storytelling and production, Lord Huron quickly rose to the mainstream stage. The single has been awarded 3x Platinum by the RIAA.
Though gaining massive popularity in 2017, Lord Huron has ever since marked their sound that gives off vibes of old tales through emotional and heartfelt melodies and production. Their debut album “Lonesome Dreams” marked the start of a journey of music that speaks volumes of emotional messages to the listener’s ear. “We had this fun idea that Lonesome Dreams was kind of this series of old adventure tales.” Ben Schneider shared in an interview.
In 2018, Lord Huron dropped their third studio record “Vide Noir”, hitting the #9 on the Billboard 200 chart. The acclaimed album produced their fan favorite singles “Ancient Names (Part I)”, “Wait by the River”, and “Never Ever”.
In 2021, as the band grew a bigger fanbase for their emotionally-lit music and waves of acclaim from critics and fans alike, Lord Huron released their newest album “Long Lost”. The new album featured their new singles “Not Dead Yet”, “Mine Forever”, “Long Lost”, and “I Lied” with Allison Ponthier. In early 2022, the band released a deluxe version of Long Lost. The extended edition features their new songs “Your Other Life” and “Ton Autre Vie”.

We Love Our Pets, You Can Too
2023-05-20 | Nevada Humane Society
Nevada Humane Society (NHS) is asking for the public’s help to increase adoptions as the shelter is nearing capacity to take in more animals. NHS is celebrating National Rescue Dog Day (May 20, 2023) by putting on an event: “We Love Our Animals. You Can Too.” This promotional event is to help adoptable pets get into loving homes as well as extend a welcoming invitation to our amazing, supportive community into the NHS Reno shelter for tours and information. Please help us spread the word to the community about our event.
Nationwide, animal shelters have been reaching capacity and unable to take in animals in need. Housing shortages and cost of living increases (including pet related care) have affected adoption rates across the country. NHS has seen this trend on a local level, as potential adopters often cite the need for pet-friendly housing and affordable pet food as barriers. Regardless, the organization needs more fosters, volunteers, and animal enrichment resources for the animals at the shelter. This event is designed to bring community awareness on these issues.
Attendees can expect:
– ???? Tours of the NHS Reno shelter (2825 Longley Ln B, Reno, NV 89502) will be given every 20 minutes from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm, then again from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Tours have limited spots available. Interested persons can use this link to sign up for a tour: https://httpsnevadahumanesociety.org/tour_signup
– ???????? Food trucks and vendors will be in the NHS parking lot throughout the business day from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm. There will be sweets, treats, and food available for purchase to anyone who attends.
– ???????? If anyone is interested in adopting any available animals following the tours, NHS will be open for adoptions. All interested adopters can find more details about animal adoptions online at https://nevadahumanesociety.org/adoptions/

“Dirty” Movies - Thought Provoking Films About Our Food & Land

Our First Dirty Movies Night features Kiss the Ground which is narrated and featuring Woody Harrelson. Kiss the Ground is an inspiring and groundbreaking film that reveals the first viable solution to our climate crisis. Kiss the Ground reveals that, by regenerating the world’s soils, we can completely and rapidly stabilize Earth’s climate, restore lost ecosystems and create abundant food supplies.

Join us and explore the power of food and community to heal our environment and society. In the three films featured, we will learn how agriculture can fight climate change, the importance of reconnecting food pathways for indigenous tribes and how we can all hold corporations accountable for degrading the environment. Weather permitting, the films will be screened “drive-in movie style” outside the Tahoe Food Hub warehouse in the parking lot (hence why the films start later each time). 75 chairs will be provided but guests are encouraged to bring their own folding chair or blanket.
