Welcome to the Lake Mansion Website!
Home of Jane and Myron Lake, the founder
of Reno
The Lake Mansion provides benefits
to historians, artists, preservationists and tourists:
- Jane and Myron Lake's home, listed on both
the national and state historic registers, will be preserved
as a treasure for another century.
- An additional cultural and historic facility
in the burgeoning Reno downtown arts district that now includes
the Nevada Museum of Art, Pioneer Center, Riverside Artists
Lofts and The Lear Theater, along with several other private
galleries and shops. The mansion is a block from Wingfield
Park and the new Truckee River Whitewater Park at Wingfield.
- A location for children and adults with and
without disabilities to explore the arts in an integrated
positive environment.
- A place for tourists and locals including
children and adults to explore Reno's unique and exciting
(sometimes sordid!) history.
- A permanent home for VSA arts of Nevada,
formerly Very Special Arts Nevada, for administrative offices,
a fine art gallery, a gift shop and program space inside and
out.
- A resource center for Nevada's teachers and
artists to reference information on the arts, disability issues
and Reno history.

Historian Patty Cafferata has written a book
