The Historical Society of Nevada is an organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of the state of Nevada. Founded in 1904, it serves as a resource for researchers, educators, and the general public interested in Nevada's rich cultural heritage. The society collects artifacts, documents, and photographs that reflect the state's diverse history, including its mining, ranching, and gaming industries. In addition to its collections, the society organizes events, lectures, and exhibitions to engage the community. It also collaborates with other institutions, such as the Nevada State Museum and University of Nevada, Reno, to enhance public understanding of Nevada's past.
