The Nevada State Museum in Overton, Nevada, is one of the state's six museums administered by the Nevada Department of Cultural Affairs. It centers on the Lost City Museum, which was established to exhibit artifacts excavated from Pueblo Grande de Nevada that were threatened by rising waters from Lake Mead during the Hoover Dam era. The building itself, a sun-dried adobe brick structure in a pueblo-revival style, reflects the site's historical purpose and CCC involvement in excavation and construction. The museum provides ongoing archaeological research on the remaining Lost City sites, school tours and outreach programs, changing exhibits, and access to an archival library and collections research capabilities. The museum serves researchers and the public seeking education about Nevada's prehistoric and historic environments, and it operates as a state-owned cultural institution with a very small staff. In 2019, Nevadaculture appointed a new director for the Nevada Department of Cultural Affairs, a development connected to the broader administration of Nevada's state museums.
