News & Review Newsstand Art Project

04/03/2014

Have you seen this RN&R newsstand? Created by local Artist Candace Nicole, it has graced the sidewalk at the intersection of Virginia and 1st Streets in Downtown Reno. It's missing!

The City of Reno's Public Works Department has installed a blue/gray "bank" of news boxes in the same spot. The "banked" equipment is owned, in part, by the Reno Gazette-Journal; the City of Reno has paid to refurbish it, along with others, as part of its news rack project.

Could someone from the RGJ or the City of Reno have taken this wonderful piece of Art, to replace it with something of their own?

We're checking with the City to see if they have it. If you have any info on its whereabouts, please contact the RN&R at 775-324-4440, ext. 3515. Thank you!
