The Guide

Julia Gonzalez Hall is a Los Angeles-born artist whose work is inspired by her Guatemalan and Mexican heritage. A multidisciplinary artist, Hall works across oils, acrylics, watercolors, charcoal, sculpture, painting, and photography. Her artwork has been exhibited through public art installations and galleries throughout Las Vegas and has been featured in LA Voyage Magazine.

She says: "Elysian Dimensions provides a rich investigation into spatial ambiguity and emotional resonance through the dance of color and form. It examines the delicate balance between chaos and order that defines much of abstract art. This exhibition aims to draw visitors in, prompting them to connect with the artwork on a personal level, inspiring their own interpretations. The dynamic interaction between art and viewer is essential, fostering individual reflection and sparking conversations about modern identity and visual culture.”

Trainer Fest is back! Families and aspiring trainers are invited to explore interactive stations throughout the museum, discover the real-life animals that inspired familiar characters, and participate in hands-on science activities for all ages.

Performing are Arturo Hernández Gómez, James Anderson, David Warner, and Adrianna Shaw. Tickets must be purchased online.
