Nevada P.S. I Love You Postcard Project: Love Notes from Across the Silver State

Nevadans ages 5 to adult were invited to submit a handmade Nevada P.S. I Love You Postcard to the Nevada Humanities Exhibition Series in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Las Vegas Book Festival. The postcard project and exhibition hope to connect urban and rural communities and people across the state sharing with each other the things we love about Nevada in art, poetry, and haiku.
