There’s no shortage of what to see, hear, and do at any time in Nevada. Here are some highlighted cultural events for the week starting March 25.
March 27
This conversation opens a space to celebrate the rich perspectives of Black artists, social change makers, and everyday folks who’ve deepened our capacities to feel, observe, and be present to natural worlds that are often weaponized against us as Black people shaped in various ways by the U.S. south (east/west).
Coming from a range of disciplines and movements—music, poetry, oral history, birding, land stewardship, water protection, sobriety, demilitarization, and more—guests Lazarus Letcher, Erica Vital-Lazare, Claytee D. White, and host Saretta Morgan will reflect on their personal eco-histories and share literature, songs, photos, and ephemera that speak to how they’ve come to understand their sense of place and possibility in ever-shifting and contested geographies.

The highly regarded, Grammy-winning, Italian-born jazz guitarist influenced by bebop legends such as Art Tatum and Bud Powell makes a stop at the Smith Center.

Springtime is near, and that means ample opportunities to touch grass — or at least watch athletes do so. Here’s hoping the home opener for the Lights FC portends a season more like 2024 and its playoff run than last year’s dead-last ranking.
Guest: Mike Prevatt, arts and culture reporter, Nevada Public Radio
