PBS Reno is proud to present the 2026 Spotlight Awards Gala

PBS Reno's annual gala and community awards show “spotlights” individuals and community groups making a positive impact in our region. As the station's largest fundraiser of the year, PBS Reno will also hold our auction featuring enticing and exciting packages that support PBS Reno’s mission to Entertain Your Curiosity.

This year, PBS Reno is proud to honor Nick & Debbie Rossi as the Extraordinary Philanthropists of the Year. Proud Nevadans, Nick & Debbie Rossi have a deep dedication supporting nonprofits in our community. Nick Rossi is the founder and president of LP Insurance.

The Spotlight Awards Gala is more than a celebration of extraordinary people in our region - it’s an opportunity to ensure PBS Reno can continue to serve northern Nevada and northeastern California for generations to come. By participating, donating, or sponsoring, you are helping us move forward together, stronger than ever.
