Emily Moores is a visual artist whose hand-cut and ornately layered works range from intimate wall pieces to large-scale installations that invite the playful engagement of the body as essential to understanding and experiencing space.

Speaking of her work, Moores says that she transforms a physical space or surface of a paper into a whimsical environment using colorful patterns, textures, and ornamentation. The inspiration for intricate patterns and design elements comes from everyday objects, like wallpaper, decorative china, and playgrounds. With over-stimulation from screens and a fast-paced accomplishment culture, the physical nature of textures and patterns can bring viewers into the physical reality.

Runs July 2 through September 26.
Gallery Talk and Opening Reception: July 2

Las Vegas Little Theatre is proud to present Come From Away, the acclaimed Tony Award-winning musical by David Hein and Irene Sankoff in our air-conditioned Mainstage.

In the days following September 11, 2001, 7,000 airline passengers found themselves unexpectedly stranded in the small town of Gander, Newfoundland. What began as a moment of uncertainty became an extraordinary story of compassion, friendship, and humanity. Featuring a spirited Celtic-inspired score and a fast-paced, heartfelt story, Come From Away reminds us that even in challenging times, people can come together in remarkable ways. Live band on stage.

North Las Vegas Campus Fine Arts Gallery

Step into the world of a modern-day Black Renaissance man — an artist whose life’s work transcends medium and becomes movement. This exhibit brings together the layered expressions of a creator who raps with purpose, paints with soul, teaches with intention, and leads with vision.

Each piece on the wall pulses with narrative: canvases rich with color and symbolism that explore Black identity, resilience, and cultural memory. Alongside them, echoes of lyricism — verses that speak truth, resistance, and hope — invite viewers to not only see, but hear the rhythm of lived experience. His voice carries beyond the studio and into the classroom, where education becomes liberation, and into the community, where his nonprofit work transforms art into action.

On exhibit at West Las Vegas Library from July 14 through September 22.
Monday-Thursday: 10:00AM - 8:00PM
Friday-Sunday: 10:00AM - 6:00PM

Around the Table: Stories of Nevada Foodways celebrates the diverse food traditions and stories of the people of the Silver State. It will be on display through August 26.

The exhibit features stories about the food traditions of Nevadans as told through handmade, descriptive, illustrated recipe cards and zines. A zine is a small, handmade, self-published booklet or magazine that provides a hands-on, do-it-yourself way to share stories, artwork, poetry, and ideas. On display are food-oriented zines and recipe cards created by everyday Nevadans from across the state that represent the diversity and meaning of Nevada’s family food traditions.

There will be a reception on July 14. Stop by and share a zine or recipe card of your own to help Nevada Humanities build an archive of Nevada foodways stories, memories, and community. It's free but they'd like you to RSVP.
