Our Story Inc. Annual Report
2016
Welcome to Our Story, Inc. We share, seek out, collect, preserve and exhibit the contributions, heritage and culture of people who have not been well represented in Northern Nevada’s public image.
We were honored to have Dr. Quintard Taylor of BlackPast.Org as the guest speaker for our 20th Anniversary Celebration Dinner. During his stay we enjoyed taking him to some of the historic sites of African American trail blazers that helped make Northern Nevada what it is today.
Beckwourth Museum, Beckwourth Pass & Emigrant Trail
Mottsville Cemetery: Burial place of Ben Palmer
Virginia City: Home of the Boston Saloon
We are excited to see what 2017 holds for us!!!!
