PBS Reno Promotes Holly Hutchinson to Event Specialist
RENO, NV (OCT 16, 2026) – PBS Reno has promoted Holly Hutchinson to the role of Event Specialist. As Event Specialist, Hutchinson will oversee all annual and inaugural PBS Reno events including but not limited to the Spotlight Awards Gala in September, Be My Neighbor Day in July, plus special screenings, volunteer celebrations, PBS Reno member events, and other gatherings throughout the year.
“Some of PBS Reno’s most meaningful moments happen when people come together around a shared purpose,” said Hutchinson. “I’m grateful for the chance to take on an expanded role in helping create experiences that bring people together and celebrate the work PBS Reno does for our community.”
Hutchinson joined PBS Reno in 2019 as an Education Associate after completing her internship with PBS Reno through the University of Nevada, Reno, where Hutchinson earned her bachelor’s degree in English with a specialization in writing. Hutchinson moved into the role of Development Coordinator in 2020 and Event Coordinator in 2024.
“We are so excited to recognize Holly Hutchinson with this well-deserved promotion,” said Emma Glenn, PBS Reno Vice President of Development. “She has grown tremendously in her role, taking on new responsibilities and bringing fresh ideas, creativity, and enthusiasm to everything she does. Her hard work has played an important part in elevating our events, including the continued success of our Spotlight Awards Gala. I’m incredibly proud of all she has accomplished and excited to see her continue to grow as our Event Specialist.”
