Carson City Historical Society Postpones
Open Houses for a Period
Posted: May 8, 2025
As much as we would like to welcome you to visit us on Sunday
afternoons, we are going to suspend Open House visits to our two
cheerful yellow buildings - the Foreman-Roberts House Museum and
the Carriage House - for a few months. During this time we will
be preparing for our big "History of Brothels in Nevada Project,"
opening around mid-June. Around Nevada Day, we are likely to end
the exhibit, and at that time we may resume Open Houses. We are sorry for the
inconvenience, but we think it is worth the trouble.
