Nevada Humanities is Nevada’s nonprofit affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). With offices in Reno and Las Vegas, Nevada Humanities’ statewide work defines the Nevada experience, features local culture and heritage, and encourages intellectual curiosity. Nevada Humanities fosters cultural enrichment and connection for all Nevadans. By creating and supporting dynamic public programs that inspire engagement, we deepen a collective sense of place and belonging that encourages mutual understanding and empathy, which are the foundations of community and democracy. Nevada Humanities builds a connected and engaged Nevada. Cover image credit/Michael P Branch
