Nevada County Arts Council acknowledges that the original inhabitants of territories now known as Nevada County continue to be home to indigenous peoples. Generations of Washoe and Nisenan tribal communities, east and west, shared boundaries with Maidu peoples and developed deep understandings of these lands. Through ceremony, culture and stewardship our indigenous peoples continue long standing relationships with the land, as well as with water, air, plant and animal beings. We are committed to understanding that the voices of our indigenous communities are primary voices, and to supporting their leadership towards a more just future for everyone.


Nevada County Arts Council, by resolution of Nevada County Board of Supervisors, is State-Local Partner with California Arts Council. As such, we facilitate collaborative efforts that promote and sustain the visual, literary and performing arts of Nevada County in order to advance the cultural, social and economic life of our community. We are a 501c3 not-for-profit organization and your contributions are tax-deductible by law. Our Employment Identification Number (EIN) is 27-0314493.
