The Nevada Buckaroo with Michael Fischer

  • Western Nevada College 2201 West College Parkway Carson City, Nevada, 89703 United States (map)

Step into the spirit of the Great Basin and experience the living legacy of the Nevada cowboy. Join Western Nevada College for a special evening celebrating Selections from “The Last Cowboy” by Adam Jahiel—an evocative exhibition of platinum prints that bring the grit, beauty, and tradition of buckaroo life in the Elko region into sharp focus. Jahiel's collection is a time capsule of Great Basin reality captured in a stunningly beautiful format.

The evening features guest speaker Dr. Michael Fischer, noted local historian and former director of the Nevada Department of Cultural Affairs, who will offer a fascinating look at what sets the Nevada cowboy apart—and how the enduring buckaroo tradition came to define the region.

Enjoy an inspiring blend of art, history, and storytelling, along with light refreshments.
