Nevada Stories is an online video series that focuses on folk and traditional artists, specific local traditions, and Nevada’s landscape. It supports the Arts Council’s outreach to provide folklife education to all age groups and the Nevada Commission on Tourism by highlighting individuals, communities, and sites that stimulate interest in cultural and heritage tourism. This ongoing project is supported, in part, through a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
