NHS Artown Talks - On The GO! hosted at Nevada Sunset Winery.

Every Saturday in July, we will feature two amazing History talks from 1-2pm and 2:30-3:30pm at our community partner's location. Our Artown talks are free to the public.

From the moment she was born, Miss Wakayama was destined to serve as a goodwill ambassador. Throughout her life, Nevada’s Japanese Friendship Doll has undergone numerous transformations. With an unexpected discovery from the archives of the Nevada Historical Society, we aim to determine whether Miss Wakayama is an impostor or a victim. Learn more about the history of this famous doll from our guest speaker, Betsy Morse, NHS Educational Docent.
