The State of the Arts
NBT’s Artistic Director Roy Kaiser recently joined other local arts leaders on KNPR’s State of Nevada public affairs program, hosted by Rachel Christiansen, to discuss the current state of the arts community. The segment features the dean of UNLV’s College of Fine Arts Nancy Uscher, Nevada School of the Arts CEO Patrick Duffy, noted jazz trumpeter and founder of the Jazz Outreach Initiative Kenny Rampton, and NBT’s own Roy Kaiser, discussing the role of innovation and collaboration in today’s new world. Despite the unique challenges facing each organization and the arts community as a whole, the panel is in agreement that the enduring resilience of artists and arts organizations will be the key to a bright future beyond the pandemic.
