Nevada Arts Council Hosts Opportunity to Discuss Creative Communities

The Nevada Arts Council is launching a series of Arts Town Meetings to engage in conversations with Nevadans across the state and explore the cultural needs of large and small communities, the role of the arts in the Silver State, and to evaluate its role as a state agency. “The City of Reno Arts and Culture Commission, Renown Health Foundation and Sierra Arts are honored to co-sponsor this forum and hear both individual and collective ‘values and visions’ for our community and state,” said Sierra Arts Director Stacey Spain. The information gathered at these meetings, and through an online survey, will help shape the Nevada Arts Council’s strategic plan, Values & Vision, 2016-2019.
