Upcoming Events Nevada Humanities invites the people of Nevada to connect, understand, and engage with the vibrant communities, diverse cultures, and rich histories that make up the Silver State.

In case you missed some of our virtual events in the blur of 2020, we invite you to look back in a retrospect of our 2020 virtual events on our YouTube channel. By Wendy KveckThe impetus for curating New Monuments for a Future Las Vegas for the Nevada Humanities Exhibition Series, which is currently on view at the Nevada Humanities Program Gallery and online at nevadahumanities.org, was my experience teaching the inaugural Las Vegas Seminar, Finding America in Las Vegas, last spring in the Department of Art at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. A lofty premise! but I stand behind it. By Staff of Nevada HumanitiesAt Nevada Humanities, we create and fund programs that use the humanities to illuminate our diverse histories and chart a path forward in a dramatically changing world. We know the critical role that the humanities play in nurturing just and healthy communities, in connecting people, providing space for diverse perspectives, and strengthening our community bonds with deeper intellectual and cultural engagement.

I met him at the gym, and he gave me a greater gift than he realized. That I would recognize a name in the obituary column probably is unsurprising. I write and teach about Las Vegas history, and I’m likely to know some names that others would miss. Since 1971, Nevada Humanities has created and funded cultural and educational programs that connect Nevadans and share our diverse stories. In a time of global crisis, we need to connect and understand our experiences now more than ever.
