The First Lady Presents…
The First Lady Presents… is a curatorial short essay comparison of a contemporary Nevadan artist’s portfolio juxtaposed to an artifact from the collection of the Nevada State Museum in Carson City.
Mark Salinas, independent curator of this arts education initiative, selects our featured artists in response to the museum’s monthly Curator’s Corner artifact selection with the intent to promote and expand the visibility of underrepresented artists in Nevada.
Join us on this insightful and inspiring journey and together as Nevadans, let us study the past, honor the present, and envision the future.
