Cue the Chaos for Artown
Kick off Reno’s film season with an event that powers the Reno 48 Hour Film Project and brings Northern Nevada’s creative community together to form this year’s teams. Highlights include free, open auditions, a fierce voiceover contest, hands-on workshops to build skills, and a full slate of activities designed to spark collaboration. Attendees can get professional headshots on site and take part in big raffles. With a target of 25 teams, the energy will be high for filmmakers, actors, and anyone eager to watch new productions take shape. Presented as part of Artown 2026.
