The Lost City Museum celebrated its 90th Anniversary in May! Completed in 1935, the Boulder Dam Park Museum was built to house the artifacts from excavations on land that was eventually under Lake Mead. In the early 1950s, the museum transferred to state control, and the name changed to what it is today – the Lost City Museum. The focus of the museum has always been the indigenous peoples that lived and thrived in the Moapa Valley a thousand years ago.

This presentation by Lost City Museum archaeologist Virginia Lucas includes photos from Moapa's 1925 and 1926 Pageants and video clips from the 1920s and 1930s excavations.

Free with admission to museum.

Featured are paintings, prints, and installation artwork inspired by the endangered and threatened fauna that make Nevada home.

Says Fulmer: “Fragile Desert grows out of my previous artwork inspired by Nevada and Mojave flora. Here, instead of flora, I look to interpret Nevada animal life, specifically a selection of animals listed under the federal Endangered Species Act.

These include the Mt. Charleston Blue Butterfly (Endangered), the Western, Yellow-Billed Cuckoo (Threatened), the Carson Wandering Skipper (Endangered), the Devils Hole Pupfish (Endangered), Southwestern Willow Flycatcher (Endangered), and the Ash Meadows Naucorid (Threatened).

In this project, these Nevada fauna become the vehicle I use to investigate texture, pattern, repetition, color, progression, and variety throughout the gallery space.”
