Our Nevada Stories
History is right now
History isn’t just in textbooks—it’s in our stories, our voices, and our everyday lives. With our partners, the Nevada Arts Council and the Nevada Division of Museums and History, we’re capturing that history as it happens, one conversation at a time.
How we’re turning stories into legacy
The Our Nevada Stories team will crisscross the state, interviewing leaders, historians, and the Nevadans who have shaped our state as we know it. These stories—personal, powerful, and local—will be featured in a new podcast series set to launch in 2026.
Episodes will be broadcast on local public radio and available for download. After 2026, these stories will live on through a searchable digital archive, the Nevada Arts Council Folklife program, and as immersive exhibits inside the State Museums.
We all have a story worth telling
Our Nevada Stories seeks voices from every corner of the state. Help us identify unsung champions who have shaped Nevada in ways big and small.
We’re looking for stories from longtime locals, new Nevadans, community leaders, creatives, historians, and everyday people with something to say. Share your own experience or nominate someone. Not sure what to share?? Start with a moment that meant something to you—something that made you feel proud, connected, or changed. Your story matters here.
