“Postcards From the Edge (of Nevada)” Our Center Reno
February 26 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
| Reno, NV- A community art gallery featuring queer artists and their words of hope. Postcards From the Edge (of Nevada) is a community-driven exhibition that invites queer artists and allies to reflect on place, identity, and survival at the margins. Using the humble postcard as both artwork and message, this exhibition transforms personal expression into a shared act of connection—one that crosses distance, isolation, and silence. At the edge of geography, culture, and visibility, queer communities in Nevada have long cultivated resilience through creativity, humor, tenderness, and mutual support. This exhibition honors those lived experiences by creating space for artists of all backgrounds to speak directly to the queer community—past, present, and future—through words and images meant to be held, sent, and remembered. Postcards From the Edge (of Nevada) is not just a collection of artworks, but a living archive of care. Each postcard becomes a gesture of solidarity, a reminder that even at the edge, we are not alone. “At Our Center, we are dedicated to creating and supporting inclusive programs for the entire LGBTQ+ community. This includes offering support groups for youth and adult trans members, community groups for seniors, and prevention-focused initiatives.” To learn more about what Our Center offers, please visit: https://ourcenterreno.org/ Gallery West, located in McKinley Arts & Culture Center is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno.
