FROM THE EDITOR: We are getting deeper into the fall season – a time for Wolfpack football games, spending time with friends and family, and giving back to the community. Check out our articles on some great places to get good food and drinks, some upcoming music events and a rocking new venue, our new Reno Passport iPhone application, and some ways to live better with local food, to volunteer your time to those less fortunate, and to expose yourself to the arts. Here’s to a truly epic fall.


Rub’s Pub and Grille 1290 E Plumb Ln - 775.825.5282 Hours: Mon-Sat 11am-9pm Sure, everybody knows about the row of restaurants that face Costco to the south. But if you simply peek around the corner to the east, you’ll discover an absolute diamond in Rub’s Pub and Grille. Don’t let the name sway you though, it’s named for owner Randy Rubadeau. After working in the corporate ranks at Wendy’s for about ten years and running three Wendy’s restaurants of his own, Rubadeau decided to start his own joint with a Wendy’s philosophy: fresh ingredients, timely service, and a friendly atmosphere. The roomy interior is immaculate and sophisticated with lots of stone, tile, marble, Mediterranean accents and colors and features a small but very efficient exhibition kitchen servin’ up tasty home cookin’. The walls are adorned with a smattering of 50’s celebs – Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Audrey Hepburn, etc. – but the true gem here is the menu. The kids and seniors’ menus feature all their favorites, like burgers, hot dogs, corn dogs, spaghetti and meatball, grilled cheese, chicken fingers, and even mac ‘n’ cheese. For those of you in the prime demographics, their third-pound burger line-up is a masterful tribute to the Western States. The California, Montana, New Mexico, Idaho, and 2 www.renopassport.com

Arizona burgers are all created with unique, regional ingredients. The New Mexico Burger, for example, is prepared with jalapeños, poached egg, thin fried onions, and chipotle ketchup on the side. Hot and cold sandwiches, soups, salads, and selected dinner items (Hawaiian Ham Steak, Slow Roasted Chicken, Scampi Pasta, and more) round out the menu. Their full-service bar will quench any thirst. Their daily happy hour runs from 3-7pm, with well drinks at $3.25 and specials on domestic beers - 32oz for $4, 20oz for $3, and 15oz for $2. So get on down to Rub’s for some good grub.

FYI:

El Tumi Peruvian Restaurant 585 E. Moana Ln. 775.827.5454

Traditional Peruvian drinks, beers (Peruvian/ Mexican), and Inca Kola are available along with orders to go. Daily lunch specials ($5.95), soups, salads, seafood and desserts are on the menu. Price range$4.45 $ 12.95.

fresh sour cream. Fried but not greasy, the fruit was like biting into a potato and then getting the sweet goodness of a yam. Latin music played softly in the background while Pollo a la brassa ($5.95) and Pan con Chicharron with Camote Frito ($6.45) was delivered to the table. The Pollo a la brassa, a richly marinated quarter rotisserie chicken, was served with a house salad topped with a secret Incan dressing and hot fresh French fries. Presented with a Salsa Criolla (Peruvian onions, lime juice and vinegar), the Pan con Chicharron was served in a large fresh roll. The marinated deep-fried pork and slices of sweet potato made it an unexpected treasure to bite into. A combination bite of the succulent pork, soft bread, and crunchy onions was pure Incan gold. Peruvian food is full of adventure and pleasant surprises, so get to El Tumi for an exquisite culinary journey.

With exotic smells wafting from the kitchen and pleasing Peruvian prints adorning the walls, El Tumi Peruvian restaurant is both warm on the eyes and the senses. I was seated by a congenial server, who quickly served chips and salsa. The salsa was not the type of salsa that most diners would expect; it was green spicy affair that had a consistency reminiscent of a light hummus. Made with Huacatay, a native Peruvian herb, it had a definite bite and zing with the zesty taste of mint and basil. I ordered a classic Pisco Sour ($5.95), which is a frothy blend of Pisco brandy, lime juice, egg whites, simple syrup, and bitters. It was an excellent cocktail to extinguish the fire of the salsa. Taking a look at the extensive and reasonably-priced menu (a $4.95 kids’ menu is also available), Platano Frito ($3.45) seemed like a good entrada (appetizer).

Morandi’s Record Street Brewing Co. 945 Record St. - 775.324.2337 www.recordstbrewery.com Nestled along the train tracks off of 9th Street by the university sits Morandi’s Record Street Brewing Co. Part coffee shop, part restaurant, and part bar, this place is all good. They’re open Monday through Friday from 7am until the beer stops pouring, but the kitchen closes at 8:30pm. Though not typically open on the weekends, they do open three hours before the Wolfpack football games and provide free parking and shuttle service to and from the game. Owners Lisa and Joe Morandi had been customers of the Record Street Café, and when the building became available to lease, they jumped at the chance. Though neither of them has a background in the service industry, they are both committed to providing an amazing experience for their customers. This is a quintessential Mom and Pop Shop. This locally-owned and operated restaurant doesn’t have any corporate backing. They quit their jobs – Lisa worked as a preschool teacher and Joe owned his own construction company – to follow their hearts. “This is a love interest of ours,” said Joe. “We have high-quality food with the freshest ingredients and 12 exceptional beers on tap. They’re beers from breweries you’ve heard 6 www.renopassport.com

of, but these are the rare B-sides.” And he should know. He’s been brewing his own beer for over 20 years. Speaking of beer, Morandi’s Record Street Brewing Co. will start hosting Brew U, fancy beer education classes meant to educate students on the different varieties of beers. Their first Brew U class will be held on November 17 at 7pm and will feature a class about porter. On any given day, you can sit next to faculty and students from the university to construction workers and locals from the neighborhood. What’s fascinating is how all different types of people come for the exact same reason. “We’re all about good food, good drinks, good friends, and good times,” said Joe.

Kona Gold – Coffee, Wine, and Cocktails 3304 S. McCarran Blvd, - 775.826.1616 - http://KonaBarReno.com Hours: Mon. – Sat. from 6am – 8pm(ish), Sun. from 7am – 4pm(ish) Hidden in the business complex at the corner of McCarran and Mira Loma is a jewel of south Reno worth discovering. Kona Gold has been in business for about four years but has recently been acquired by three new owners: Bryan Sintay, Jennifer Rogers, and Derek Asmas. The new owners are determined to make Kona Gold “the spot” to eat, drink, do business, and hang out on the south side of town. Open early in the morning until the customers leave, Kona Gold is an ideal stop to grab breakfast before work and is an even better place to get a couple of drinks after a hard day at the office. You can get a breakfast sandwich for only $2.25! “We want to make our prices competitive with the fast food joints around here,” said Sintay. This is very significant because at Kona Gold everything is handmade. “We don’t 8 www.renopassport.com

have a microwave here,” added Rogers. Their lunch menu includes of a variety of panini sandwiches and international cuisine items that will surely fulfill your appetite. During happy hour (4-8pm daily), all domestic beers are $2 and premium beers are $3. They also offer discounted wine and food during these times. Besides their daily happy hour, they have an event during the same time called “Wine Down Wednesdays” where they take 50% off selected wines and premium wine is only $3. On Sunday mornings, they offer mimosa specials starting at $4. They will soon have coffee tasting events and live entertainment, so the next time you’re in the neighborhood, pay a visit to Kona Gold, for you will surely find something you love.

Black Tangerine 9825 S. Virginia St. - 775.853.5003 Hours: Mon-Sat, 3pm-whenever Rain drizzles through the chill air. My friend Arian and I shuffle up to a stone-fronted building that stretches into a dark Saturday night. Above a wide metal door, a lit-up sign welcomes us to the Black Tangerine. I had heard word that the bar was “in a barn.” That’s true, but where dirt and straw lay long ago, dark, hardwood floors stretch. The Black Tangerine is dimly lit. The bar extends along the right side of the building. On the opposite side, men slide metal circles over the sandy surface of a fulllength shuffleboard table. Arian and I sit on red bench seats under the green vinyl leaves of a fake bush. Our eyes adjust to a mélange of décor, including industrial metalwork, zebra print wall pieces, and a graffiti rendering of what must be the Black Tangerine tree. An attitude of eccentricity exists that says to me “home from Black Rock City and I still wanna party.” But don’t expect techno echoes to 10 www.renopassport.com

shake your drinks. This is a rock bar. Music is central to the Black Tangerine. Owner Kandi Street said the focus of the bar is to “showcase local musicians” although out-of-town bands are welcomed. As I sip my stiff ginand-tonic, the headbangin’ Washington band Gebular takes the stage. Arian gets wound up in pounding bass lines while the drummer kicks me back to the grunge era. Gebular riffs out a Nirvana cover, and I long for 1992. On most Reno nights, you can get a taste of the Black Tangerine. Bring your thirsty self down on Wednesdays for karaoke and $1 Kamikazes, or sit back and enjoy acoustic Mississippi Blues each Tuesday. Live, and amplified, rock bands or DJs, take the stage every Friday and Saturday.

local band spotlight calling cadence Filled to the brim with strip clubs, pawn shops, and casinos, this town never really had the reputation to be friendly to those under 21. In my youth, most of us sat in parking lots getting in trouble. This very boredom lead me to the old YMCA gym where I found Sucka Punch, a band that very well defined a local generation. So you could imagine my excitement when I ran into the drummer of Sucka Punch, Pierre Marche, and found out that I was getting my reunion… well, kind of, maybe more of a reinvention of a familiar sound. Calling Cadence consists of Mike Young (vocals), Bun Chettaraj (bass), Pierre Marche (drums), and Chris Holloway (guitar, backup vocals). The guys are back to the collaborative pattern of Sucka Punch with Chris and Bun writing the music and Pierre and Mike nailing down the lyrics. “I love the local scene,” Pierre says, which is definitely an understatement when given his local band resume: Sucka Punch, Steve12 www.renopassport.com

dave, Pascal, Big in Japan, and Promises Promises just to name a few. Plus, Pierre adds, “The clubs and promoters here provide local bands with opportunities to open for some pretty legendary bands, which can really kick-start things when you’re new.” The dream never dies of making it big, he says, but the focus and reasoning behind it changes. No longer does Calling Cadence aspire for fame and importance, but more for the luxury of doing what they love for a living. “If you love shoveling s!@# and you work for the rodeo, you’re already a rock star,” Pierre jokes. Check them out online at http://myspace. com/callingcadencereno or Reverbnation through Facebook, or catch Calling Cadence live on Nov 6th with The Shames at Amendment 21 and on Nov 13th with Murder Majesty and Don’t Panic at Vixens.

lunchbox radio Lunchbox Radio is the creative collaboration between two electronic music addicts who want to share the music they love to like-minded music fans. Roy Lindauer (Ecsyle) and Nicole Martinelli (The Mantis) initially started LBR as a way to access their music catalog via the internet while at work. After learning how to broadcast online, they eventually began broadcasting a live show from their house called “Jager Hour” in which they would play their favorite songs back and forth while taking shots of Jagermeister on air. The initial foundation for the show had been built, but they still had grander ideas for LBR. Being electronic music fans and supporters of the local electronic scene in Reno, they evolved LBR from broadcasting their personal music collection into a 24/7 online radio station to promote local talent that they loved as a way to give back to the community. DJs and producers in the area who caught wind of the new show began submitting music, and LBR quickly received over 72 hours of music to play on the show. With a sizable catalog on hand, the official lunchboxradio.com was launched, and Reno’s first all electronic music station was born. Now several months into the project, LBR has grown past its own expectations and is already home to several weekly shows outside

of Reno, including Warped Radio hosted by DJ Ribble in Sacramento, and Darkstar 801 hosted by Hobbz and Son:R in Salt Lake City. The new shows have helped LBR expand to promote talent in other cities as well, airing mixes submitted from DJs all over the country. The newest edition to LBR is a live, in-studio broadcast program called Milk Money Sessions, which gives the spotlight to a selected DJ to play for two hours live on air. The shows are promoted via the web and are designed to further push LBR’s favorite DJs. Also wanting to promote parties in the area, Ecsyle and The Mantis teamed with DJ AFS and Sean Murray and created Hustlecast. The Milk Money Sessions and Hustlecast shows are available for free via iTunes. If you are a fan of electronic music, check out LBR and join the community on the web forums. If you are a DJ or producer, feel free to submit a mix or music for consideration. Ecsyle and The Mantis admit that they only play music they like, so be sure to check out the music submission guidelines at LunchBoxRadio.com to make sure your music will qualify. You can tune in any time at http://lunchboxradio.com and can follow LBR on Twitter at http://twitter.com/lunchboxradio. Text by Kevin Kolstad

Knitting Factory Concert House 211 North Virginia - 775.323.KNIT (5648) http://knittingfactory.com When it comes to major music clubs and concert houses in the country, a few names probably stick out: CBGB, The Viper Room, Henry Fonda Theater, Fillmore, Hammerstein Ballroom, Warfield, and Knitting Factory. Well hold on to your socks, folks, because the latter is coming to Reno. The Knitting Factory first opened their doors more than 20 years ago in New York in an old – you guessed it – knitting factory. There are currently five concert houses in the nation: New York, Los Angeles, Spokane, Boise, and (soon-to-be) Reno. The parent company, Knitting Factory Entertainment, promotes concerts and events in 43 states. The concert house prides itself in providing its patrons with cutting-edge bands at fan-friendly prices. With a full-service kitchen serving up high quality food, The Knit (as the hip kids call it) is going to make some long-time-overdue waves in the local concert industry. “Reno has been underserved when it comes to cutting-edge music,” said Dean Hanson, General Manager of the Knitting Factory in 14 www.renopassport.com

Reno. “We’ve been looking at coming here for five years and are excited to have found the perfect venue.” Featuring a three-story layout at what was most recently Rocky’s Sports Bar near the intersection of Virginia and 2nd streets, the mostly all-ages music club is going to cater to both its patrons and its talent. The under-twenty-one crowd is going to be given the first and the subfloor while the over-twenty-one and the VIP crowd will be granted access to the upper floor. “For a fee, patrons can get VIP access to every show with prime seating, multiple tickets to every show each year, and high-quality VIP service,” said Hanson. Though not slated to open until December, Knitting Factory is gearing up for some big names to come through their doors. For upcoming events, visit them online at http://knittingfactory.com and select Reno Concert House. Text by Michelle Montoya

here’s a battle taking place right now in a parking lot, and unlike most parking lot scuffles, the only weapon is a can of spray paint. It’s the most colorful battle you’ll ever see – and possibly the friendliest. The canvas for the competition is the outside wall in the back of the Studio on 4th, a previously blank slate that is rapidly turning into a colorful masterpiece. This is a friendly fight and a proactive artistic state16 www.renopassport.com

ment that invites the city to redefine the beauty in graffiti. One man’s mural is another man’s act of vandalism. Graffiti is certainly the most controversial style of painting, and because of subject matter, style, and possible illegality, it has historically been reviled by society for its bright, blatant, in-your-face message. For this reason, the two artists engaged in battle wish to be known only by their graffiti monikers: Bazar 1 and

Mire. Their faces are covered with bandanas while they balance on ladders with cans of paint in both hands. Their friends stand against the back wall and watch them work. Hypnotic breakbeats thump from a tiny stereo under one of the ladders, and the parking lot has become a stage for well-choreographed performance art. It is nothing short of transfixing. Graffiti art is commonplace in cities like San Francisco


and New York, and Bazar 1 notes that shopkeepers in these cities are known to invite graffiti artists to add color to their storefront. In Reno, he says, people only want you to paint their logos. The idea of an outspoken mural is out of the question, which is a shame – against the backdrop of casino lights and chain link fences, graffiti art can be downright beautiful. The piece that Bazar 1 and Mire are creating has this gait-halting effect – in the center there is a gigantic skull whose mouth resembles the opening of a carnival haunted house ride. The contrast of black, white,

and red spray-strokes makes the piece seem to jump out from the wall. Since graffiti culture has been largely isolated from the art world, artists stage “battles” where two artists paint a wall, and judges decide who is the victor. Graffiti is a fiercely competitive world, but in this case, this is friendly competition with the aim to expose the beauty of street art to Reno. “We got no beef,” says Mire. “We call it a battle, but we’re doing it for the greater cause for Reno.” The title of the piece is “Big Trouble in Little Reno,” an allusion to the 1980’s movie “Big

Trouble in Little China.” When the piece is finished, the artists are inviting the people of Reno to judge who is the winner. “We’re going to put it on the city [to judge],” laughs Bazar 1. “We’re leaving it up to the people.” On what basis does the public judge the battle? “Technical skill, style, originality and overall expression,” he responds. To view “Big Trouble in Little Reno,” come down to the Studio on 4th and vote for the best artist. RP Tip: Studio on 4th is located at 432 E 4th St in Reno.

Grassroots Books 660 E. Grove St. - 775.826.6556 - http://grassrootsbooks.com Hours: Mon – Sun 9am-8pm Tucked behind Costco in Reno is a unique bookstore. Although a little tough to find, this self-proclaimed used book megastore is well worth the journey for the avid reader and the casual page turner alike. Grassroots Books was originally started as an internet bookseller, and after a brief stint at another location, they moved to their current spot on Grove. Although only a month old, word of mouth about Grassroots Books has been spreading fast. The store itself stays true to its internet roots, offering low prices and a wide selection. With over 20,000 titles and more being added daily, you’re sure to find something on every visit. Despite the name, they are more than just a bookstore: they also carry CDs, audio books, DVDs, and some software. Their simple pricing plan makes finding the price easy and provides a welcome relief for the wallet. Kid’s books and pocket paperbacks are $0.99. All other paperbacks are $1.99, and hard covers are $2.99. Some selections do run higher, but the prices are prominent and easy to find. 18 www.renopassport.com

If those prices aren’t low enough, check out one of their parking lot sales where everything in the lot is just $.99. This isn’t a small lot sale either. The one I attended had over 15,000 books. The parking lot sales usually run all weekend and culminate on Sundays with a wrap-up bag sale where you can fill an entire grocery bag with books for only $3.99. At 5pm on these same Sundays, Grassroots gives back to the community by offering teachers and nonprofits free books from those leftover. So come check out Grassroots Books. They also boast a very friendly, helpful staff. To help keep prices low, they don’t take credit cards, so be sure to bring your checkbook or some cash. Text by Dan Sullivan Photo by Arturo Torres

Fetch! Pet Care of Reno 2330 Blue Canyon Ct. - 775.787.9090 - www.fetchpetcare.com With holiday travel planning underway, pet owners are faced with the dilemma of what to do with their furry, fluffy, feathered, or scaly family members while they are away. Around the holidays, it’s more difficult to call in favors with friends, family, and neighbors, so pet owners need to research all their options – the sooner the better as boarding facilities and professional pet sitting services fill up quickly this time of year. Not all pet care services are created equal. The first step is finding a solution that works for you and your pet. Some dogs do fine in kennels while some do not. Take your pet’s personality and temperament into consideration when choosing pet care. One alternative to kenneling is private boarding. While not in their own home, pets are given “free range” family-style accommodations in the homes of professional sitters and are just part of the family while their owners are away. 20 www.renopassport.com

Having a professional pet sitter stay in your home with your pet is another option. In-home overnight stays let pets maintain the familiarity and comfort of their own home environment. This allows pets to experience less anxiety, have lesser health risks and benefit from more personal attention. When hiring a professional pet sitter, make sure they are bonded, licensed, and insured and ask for a free consultation. It is essential to meet your sitter and for your sitter to meet your pets to make sure everyone is happy with the relationship. The last thing you need to worry about is your beloved pet when you’re enjoying the holidays away. To find out more about pet care options with Fetch!

Giving Back to the Community: Kommune-ity Kitchen Project Karen Fabian loves to cook, but more than that, she loves to help people. That’s why she started Kommune-ity Kitchen, a group of volunteers who prepare enough food to feed and serve 100 hungry homeless people at the City of Reno Community Assistance Center on Sundays. Since they started in October of 2008, the group has served the women in the Women’s Shelter, the families in the Family Shelter, and even the men and women who congregate outside the Community Assistance Center when they have food leftover. The menu varies weekly, but they always serve a balanced meal consisting of a hot protein-based entrée, a green salad/vegetable and/or fruit, bread with butter, dessert, and a drink. “I love to cook, and I have a passion for serving these people,” said Fabian. “I’ve been doing this weekly for over a year now, and I have no plans to stop anytime soon. The gifts I receive in return are hard to describe, but I can tell you that that the cliché is true. You really, truly do get so much more back when you give from the heart.” Kommune-ity Kitchen will be serving dinner on Sunday evenings at 5:30pm all through November and December at the 24 www.renopassport.com

Family Shelter, which is located on the third floor of the Community Assistance Center on Record Street. Though she accepts food and financial contributions, she prefers to have volunteers at the center help serve the food. “I don’t believe in making the families get in line for food, so extra hands are always needed to help get the food out,” said Fabian. If you want to get involved, you can email karenfabian@charter.net, and she will add you to her weekly “Kommune-ity Kitchen Update” email distribution list. You can also get more information by visiting their website at http://KarensKommune.org.

Slow Food Reno: Your Fast Track to Wellness We’ve all been there: running late, hungry, and as we’re driving, we see that glowing fast food sign on the side of the road. We stop, pound some food in, and continue on with our fast-paced day. The thing is, we don’t realize where that food we just ate came from. Where was the cattle raised that ended up as our fast-food burger? There is a movement happening in the Reno area that supports eating local, eating healthy, and eating green: Slow Food Reno. Slow Food is a national non-profit organization that has been around since 1989, but the Reno chapter was created within the last six months by founder Joe Horn, an owner of Dish Café. This organization hopes to bring back the tradition of food, supporting local farmers, and advocating for community unity and wellness. Slow Food Reno also supports eco-friendly farming and humane treatment of farm animals. The Reno chapter started six programs that will hopefully help spread the good 26 www.renopassport.com

word of local eating. These programs help celebrate our Nevadan culture, educate the community about the benefits of eating local, build partnerships with grocery stores to enable people to easily buy local produce, help Reno restaurants use local produce, provide activities for schools to help bring awareness to students, and advocate for humane treatment of Nevada cattle. There are already some establishments in Reno that support Slow Food Reno, including Great Basin Food Co-op, Dish Café, 4th Street Bistro, and The Cheeseboard. Interested in learning more about this growing non-profit organization? There will be a Slow Food Reno potluck on November 2 at 6:00 p.m. at the Patagonia outlet at 8550 White Fir Street. You can also follow Slow Food Reno on twitter at http://twitter. com/Slowfoodreno or check out their website: http://slowfoodreno.com. Text by Kate Long Photo ©iStockPhoto



Noisy Planet 507 Casazza Dr. - 775.825.3886 - http://noisyplanet.net Hours: Tuesday-Friday 7:30 a.m.-3 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Closed Sunday and Monday. Since January 2008, Noisy Planet has offered independent musicians and bands their own space on the internet to sell music and showcase upcoming events. Kevin Peterson, musician and president of Noisy Planet, saw the need for these artists to have a safe place to get their music out to a larger audience while still having the freedom of being independent of record labels. Since their online debut, Noisy Planet has gained a number of artists, including Bullet, Jonie Blinman, and Klassick. The site, which won the 2009 Best Music Business Website Award given by Musicians Atlas, features a Top 40 list that includes both new and old artists and is rotated weekly. Sign-up for listeners is free and allows a preview of the artist’s music before deciding to download. Noisy Planet also offers 10 free downloads to those who purchase one of their T-shirts available on their site. Artists can choose three different service accounts on Noisy Planet with a one-time set-up fee ranging from $49.95 to $499. Noisy 28 www.renopassport.com

Planet offers all artists their own artist’s page along with a personalized URL, space to host music, promotional material (such as a 4”x5” promo cards), and hanging banners for live events. Musicians can sell their music for $.99 per song and will also be paid 65 percent royalties for any of their downloaded music. Artists also get access to the Control Room where they can get music professionally critiqued, get distributed though iTunes or satellite radio, book gigs, and more. If an artist has an upcoming event or are releasing a CD, Noisy Planet will help spread the word by creating advertisements and displaying them on the main page. You can help support independent musicians and bands by buying their music from Noisy Planet (http://noisyplanet.net) and by checking out some upcoming events, such as the Your Music Olympicks in California and the Songwriters in the Round music series here in Reno.

Reno Passport iPhone Application Reno’s first media and events-oriented iPhone application will be released on Nov. 14, 2009. The new application provides users who are on the go with access to local event and entertainment information right at their fingertips. The new iPhone application includes three main features. The first primary feature is a mobile Reno events calendar that allows users to access Reno/ Tahoe event details. The events feature also provides links to online ticketing, event flyers, venue location, Facebook fan pages, and more. Users will be able to find information about events, purchase tickets, and get a map to the venue, all in one application. The second feature of the iPhone app allows the user to browse the current issue of Reno Passport Magazine and the two previous issues on their iPhones. Those using the iPhone app will also receive the benefit of receiving the issue five days before the magazine hits the streets each month, The third function of the iPhone app shows the Reno Passport Twitter feed, which allows 30 www.renopassport.com

followers to receive realtime updates of what’s happening around the Reno area. The Twitter feed will allow users to read. Reno Passport collaborated with Hector Urtubia of Big Robot Studios to develop the events-oriented iPhone application. By teaming with Big Robot Studios, Reno Passport is able to communicate with readers through this new medium. “Rolling out this iPhone application helps keep Reno Passport on the leading edge of technology,” said Reno Passport General Manager Baldo Bobadilla. The official iPhone application launch party will be held at The Underground on Nov. 14 at 9 p.m. For additional information about the Reno Passport iPhone application or to place your event in the Reno Passport iPhone app, contact Steve White at steve@ renopassport.com.

Art Exposed Tony Belcastro & Margarita Griggs Art Exposed is a monthly rotating art series produced by Reno Passport Magazine. The series partners with local and regional talent to raise awareness of local artists, art spaces, and musicians. Each month, Art Exposed changes venues to provide a fresh perspective and to reach a different cross section of the Reno art community. In November, Art Exposed features two local artists: Tony Belcastro and Margarita Griggs. The event will be held at Java Jungle and Jungle Vino. Music during the artist reception will be by DJ Coop da Loop, a local emerging DJ in the dance music scene in Reno. Margarita G. Griggs is a native of Asunción, Paraguay. She loved drawing at a very early age and decided to study art at the University of Nevada, Reno. Her paintings that will be on display are acrylic on canvas and reveal the hidden secrets within flowers.

“As a child growing up in Paraguay, I was lucky to be surrounded by many tropical plants and animals, which I love to bring into my paintings,” said Griggs. “My paintings reflect the way flowers feel to me.” The second of the two featured artists is Tony Belcastro, known by many as Treejah. Belcastro uses mixed mediums to create his art pieces, but most of his work includes air brush art on fabric, such as recycled bed sheets. He uses stencils, bleaching, and shading to create his tribal-spiritual influenced art pieces. Belcastro “Art for me is design. My art is inspired by the divine in all of us,” said Belcastro, who will paint live during the Art Exposed event. You can see these two artists and their work on Saturday, November 14 at 7pm at Jungle Vino and Java Jungle, which are located at 148 W. First St. Text by Steve White
