For Immediate Release:
An un-staged art event in its second year;
a.k.a. "the art show that changes its name each year",
is again 'celebrating Reno's unlimited potential for absurdity'...
...and is being held
June 26th–29th, 2008 (Thursday through Sunday)
Hours: Noon to Midnight-individual room times may vary,
Posters at each location will list all participating rooms.
All 4 nights, 21 & over entertainment in the Cortez' Trocadero Lounge a.k.a. "The Cock Fight Club"
It's a BYOB party with DJs, bands and entertainment surprises like

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
50 artists have already filled 40 motel rooms with art.
Their work will be on display for the public until check-out.
Last year sculptors, painters, photographers, printmakers and performance artists hosted their own works in these rooms. This year the art ranges from the abstract to the real and unreal.
Many doors will be open in two motels downtown. 2nd and 3rd floors of the El Cortez host about 20 rooms
while another 20 rooms exhibit at the Town House across the street. Entertainment all 4 nights. Cameras are encouraged.
Most participating artists set up studio in Reno, some hail from CA, LV and Washington. An event like this happened last year assuming the name Dada Motel. To reinforce the newness, each year the name changes. We used the line "get a room, make a show" to reinforce the idea that the artists are promoting themselves on their own dime, we've just agreed upon the dates. As arts funding dwindles in public institutions, we're in critical times for education and appreciation of creativity. We hope that this event brings back a feeling that it's in our own hands. We're proud to say that this is an artist-run event.

If you're an artist that would like to get involved with this event, join up. You hang art, people come to your room to see it. Last year we had an audience of about 1000.
call the TownHouse Motorlodge here in Reno. It's a great time to get away from the bay area and the rooms for a whole week are only $150.
Call now:775-323-1821 They're expecting more artists to rent rooms. -
