Monsters & Mayhem GamesArtist Reception: "The Audacity of Daydreaming" Reno City Artist Joanna Drakos Solo Exhibition
An artist reception highlights a solo exhibition by Reno’s 2026 City Artist, Joanna Drakos, at the Metro Gallery inside Reno City Hall.

By sharing this collection, she aims to foster connection and encourages visitors to pause with each piece, consider the titles, and allow space for their own daydreams. The Metro Gallery is operated by the City of Reno on the first floor of City Hall, and complimentary parking is available in the City of Reno garage with validation at the reception.

The search concludes with an exclusive after party where the killer is unmasked and standout detectives receive prizes. Creative team names and costumes are encouraged, with a prize for the best dressed group. Team options include a two person entry for $98 or a four person entry for $185.
