Throughout history, many African American and African Descent classical composers have made significant contributions to classical music, yet their legacies often remain overlooked.
Despite the barriers they faced due to racial prejudice, these composers created powerful works that continue to resonate today. Their stories and compositions highlight important and often forgotten chapters in the history of classical music from the creation of mankind to today.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
