"This is your time to speak out and be heard," said Carson Valley Arts Council secretary Theresa Chipp. "The impact of the arts on our lives is far reaching and the Nevada Arts Council wants every resident of the state to have a voice in shaping the state of the arts in Nevada."
Nevada Arts Council personnel have traveled throughout the state conversing with each community in an effort to ensure that their vision of the future of the arts encompasses the vision and values of their constituents.
