About the Event
An electric mix of powerhouse vocals and violin, Michelle Lambert brings a high-energy live set that blends pop, rock, and soulful storytelling. Known for her signature looped violin tracks and magnetic stage presence, her performances build layer by layer into something you can feel just as much as you hear.

A Northern California-based artist, Michelle has released a growing catalog of original music and fan-favorite singles like “Come to Me” and “Burning Bridges,” along with her debut album “Conqueror.” Her sound pulls from pop, indie, and alternative influences, with lyrics that lean personal, bold, and a little bit cinematic.

Settle in with your favorite eats and drinks from around the Market, and let the music take over.

Join us every Monday for Volunteer Tool Time at 635 E 4th St, where community members come together to help keep Reno rolling! From 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, volunteers assist with stripping bikes, fixing kids and burning man bikes, and supporting our mission to make cycling more accessible for everyone.

On the first Monday of each month, we also host a special evening session from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, perfect for those who can’t make it during the day or want a little extra wrenching time.

Whether you’re an experienced mechanic or totally new to bike tools, you’re welcome here. We’ll guide you, teach you, and work alongside you as we support our community together.

📍 Reno Public Market

Misinformation isn’t just a media problem. It’s a community problem. When trust in journalism erodes, it weakens the shared understanding we need to make decisions together, from local policy to public health.

Truth Decay is the term researchers use for the diminishing role of facts and analysis in public life. This event brings together local journalists, media scholars, and your community to explore what’s happening, why it matters, and what we can do about it.

Whether you’re a news junkie, a sceptic of all things media, or somewhere in between, this evening is designed for you. Expect thoughtful discussion, practical tools for evaluating information, and the chance to ask our expert panel your toughest questions, including:

• Moderator: Terri Russell, Chief Reporter, KOLO-TV
• Panelists:
  
  • Dr. Gi Yun Dean, Reynolds School of Journalism University of Nevada, Reno
  • Mark Robison, State Politics Reporter, Reno Gazette Journal
  • Natalie Van Hoozer Bilingual journalist & Community Manager, LION Publishers

How can landscape architects respond to novelty in their designed landscapes so that maintenance becomes an extension of design? This question requires an experimental approach that embraces the inherent tension between intention and materiality. Michael Geffel, Principal at LND LAB describes the theory, inspiration, and pragmatism that led to the founding of LND LAB, his design consultancy, which reframes maintenance and operations as tools to socially activate and ecologically regenerate fallow landscapes over time.

This is part of the Black Rock Design Institute (BRDI) lecture series for cross-disciplinary design professionals.
