The Guide

Kirby M. Brownell is a stream-of-consciousness painter/illustarator, who was a core part of both the Laservida arts collective and the Katherine Gianaclis Park for the Arts in the southeast part of town — both institutions for avant garde art from all mediums for decades. Fast-forward to now, and Kirby is nearing the end of a three-month run at the Clark County Library on East Flamingo. His show Scribble demonstrates work he describes as “surreal automatism” — which is to say that this work is not pre-meditated — and will include large, colorful, swirling paintings, as well as collages and graphite drawings.

Note: Also available Fri-Sun from 10am to 6pm.

The Avi Kwa Ame National Monument in the Mojave Desert south of Las Vegas is a space where all of us can connect with nature. Also known as Spirit Mountain, it was designated as a National Monument in 2023 because of its significant cultural importance and great biological diversity.

Artist Alina Lindquist immersed herself in Avi Kwa Ame National Monument as the artist in residence at Mystery Ranch, an artist studio and and science research center. This special exhibition showcases the artwork she created there.

It runs through August 27.

The intersection of art and science is the theme as the speakers examine how creativity and curiosity transcend disciplines. It features artists who draw inspiration from scientific inquiry and scientists who incorporate artistic practices into their work.

The DRI Storyteller is Tiffany Pereira, an ecologist and scientific illustrator specializing in the flora and fauna of the desert southwest.

One featured speaker is Jessica Oreck, owner and curator of the Office of Collection & Design, a museum devoted to the minuscule, the forgotten, and the discarded. Think of it as a giant art installation.

The second is CoCo Jenkins, a Manila-born and Vegas-raised multi-instrumentalist, producer, DJ, and looper. As a looper, she blends her classical training and beat-making skills to create psychedelic, genre-bending compositions.
