We’ve turned back the clocks to the 1920s and 30s. We’ll walk streets and alleys and visit significant buildings, recalling Reno’s saloons and reformers (the WCTU and Anti-Saloon League). We’ll even visit an alleged speakeasy for mid-tour refreshments. Then join us for an optional post-tour Repeal of Prohibition celebration at the Amendment 21 Grill, 425 South Virginia Street.
