Featured Nevada poets include: Angela Brommel, Ms. AyeVee, Harry Fagel, Jarret Keene, Heather Lang-Cassera, Joan Robinson, and Elizabeth Quiñones-Zaldaña.
"There has been an array of unexpected pleasures working with all the artists and poets who over the past 10 years have taken time to create and share their work with us,” said Bobbie Ann Howell, Program Manager, Nevada Humanities. “Works that give us insight into the creativity and beauty that thrives in our state and has connected us more strongly with each other.”
Imagine Nevada is on display from October 3 – November 26, 2019 at the Nevada Humanities Program Gallery, which is located in the Art Square Garden Courtyard at 1017 South First Street, No. 190, Las Vegas.
