Repeat Presentation:
Carson City Historical Society Presents
"Carson City: Then & Now" Lecture on April 27 at Brewery Arts Center
Sunday, April 27, 2025

Following a standing-room-only presentation by Jed Block on March 9, the Carson City Historical Society, in conjunction with the Brewery Arts Center, is proud to present a repeat presentation of his "Carson City: Then & Now" lecture on Sunday, April 27, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. The presentation will be at the Brewery Arts Center's Grand Ballroom, 449 W. King St., Carson City. Mr. Block is a dedicated historian and Carson City native with over two decades of experience researching and documenting Carson City's rich past. A well-known expert in the Capital City's history, Block is passionate about sharing its stories to inspire a greater appreciation for historic preservation.

Mr. Block currently serves on the Carson City Historic Resources Commission, where he previously held the position of Chairman. His extensive collection of historic photographs and research has made his "Carson City: Then & Now" series a local favorite, offering a glimpse into the city's lost landmarks and evolving landscape.

Block's journey into history began over 20 years ago while researching a redevelopment project, sparking a lifelong commitment to preserving and educating others about Carson City's heritage. Through his work, he hopes to encourage awareness and advocacy for the city's remaining historical treasures.

This is a paid event. There will be a $15 charge for tickets, available for purchase on the BAC website, breweryarts.org. The ticket link is posted there.
