Our Business

"Our Story, Inc.", founded in 1999 by Ken Dalton, strives to seek out, preserve and exhibit the heritage, culture, contributions and accomplishments of minorities in Northern Nevada. "The stories of minorities are not being shared and preserved like they should, says Ken. I have often heard important historical information in a casual conversation with a local resident and think to myself, "Why didn’t I know this?" Northern Nevada needs to know this! That is why I started "Our Story, Inc.". I wanted to provide a way for everyone to share, discover and learn what is not normally offered in public or private school classrooms."

"Our Story, Inc." is not a public library or an operating archive. However, we delight in pursuing and sharing the untold and/or seldom taught contributions of minorities in Northern Nevada. In cooperation with the Nevada Historical Society, some collections are stored in their facility; others may be viewed by appointment with an "Our Story, Inc." representative.

We encourage the public to learn more about the rich diversity in the history of Northern Nevada and we urge the citizens of the Silver State to research and share the trials, tribulations, accomplishments and joys of their Nevadan ancestors’ achievements with "Our Story, Inc."
