51�Թ������ܿƴ�

The 51�Թ������ܿƴ� College of Fine Arts presents the 7th Annual 51�Թ������ܿƴ� Art Walk, a free event celebrating the arts, with presenting sponsor Susan N. Houston, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 1. 

Dean Nancy J. Uscher noted that this year's theme "Viva 51�Թ������App" encompasses both an appreciation for our beautiful city, and a joyous recognition of the 60th anniversary of the iconic Ann-Margret and Elvis Presley film, part of which was filmed on the 51�Թ������ܿƴ� campus. 

The event is open to the public and features art exhibitions, live music and dance performances, film demonstrations, theatre events, and much more as you walk along the academic mall of the 51�Թ������ܿƴ� campus. The event also features food tastings from favorite local restaurants, a beer garden, wine tastings, and other surprises.

“We are living in the midst of a cultural renaissance in 51�Թ������App," Uscher said. "There is a tremendous convergence of new opportunities, partnerships, institutions and activities. How exciting that our 51�Թ������ܿƴ� Art Walk 2024 is a vital part of this swirl of art-making and community engagement.

"What better theme to have for Art Walk than 'Viva 51�Թ������App' on its 60th anniversary, celebrating the iconic film and its legendary stars, who were all part of the fascinating history of our city and region — the Arts and Entertainment capital of the entire world!”

Help us honor the 51�Թ������App community for its dedication and support of arts and culture in Southern Nevada. 

The event, including parking, is free and open to the public. To receive the full Art Walk experience, a digital guide will be available in late October providing a full schedule of Art Walk activities.
