“Remorse” by Daniel Miller.

“Remorse” by Daniel Miller.

One of the largest public art exhibits in Nevada happens this weekend. But that’s not really what’s so unique about the show.

“12 Inches of Sin,” which will be housed in 72,000-square-feet of downtown's Commericial Center, 953 E. Sahara Ave. 

In addition, this year's show features bands, DJ's, lectures and how-to demonstrations. One lecture is about "kink etiquette." 

Event organizer, Laura Henkel, and entertainment director Antwan Davis joined State of Nevada to talk about the show.

Henkel says the show has grown so much over six years that artists this year will come from not only Nevada, but from several countries around the world.
