Our Nevada Stories

History is right now

Nevada is rich in its people, our history and our stories. The Nevada Division of Museums and History with our partners, Nevada Arts Council, Nevada Humanities, and Public Radio (KNPR and KUNR) will work to collect our oral history, one story at a time.  

The Our Nevada Stories team and mobile podcast studio will crisscross the state, interviewing leaders, historians, and the Nevadans that have created the state as we know it. Their stories, along with the accounts of our residents, will frame up and build out the voice of our land. Culminating in an online archive, searchable by event, person, location, or topic, this oral history project will live on as a digital space for our future. Our Nevada Stories will be presented in podcast form and broadcasted on local public radio and downloadable on many podcast platforms.
