Nevada Museum of Art

The Nevada Museum of Art is the state’s only art museum accredited by the American Alliance of Museums (AAM) and a member of the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD). Founded in 1931, the Museum was co-founded by Dr. James Church, a pioneering climate scientist, humanist, and interdisciplinary scholar; the Latimer Art Club, a group of dedicated regional landscape painters; and Charles Cutts, whose gift of rare books and modest art collection helped solidify the institution’s foundation.
