As part of the Carson City Historical Society’s participation in the nationwide America250 commemoration, join local historian Jed Block for a fascinating visual journey through Carson City’s past. Through a carefully curated collection of rare historic photographs, Jed will explore the people, places, and stories that helped shape Nevada’s capital and reflect the broader American experience.

A longtime supporter of the Carson City Historical Society and well-known local historian, Jed Block brings history vividly to life with warmth, humor, and deep community knowledge.
