In the heart of the 18b arts district, downtown Las Vegas, Nevada is home to The Arts Factory. The premier location to the area's finest art and local culture, The Arts Factory has photographers, painters, graphic designers, and many other professionals.
The cornerstone and the major draw of the First Friday festival, up to 15,000 visitors on a friday night come from the Vegas valley to view the art and take home a piece of the local culture.
"Believe it or not, Las Vegas has a burgeoning art scene (what some would consider soul-crushing is what others consider inspirational), and this complex, located in 18b, the Las Vegas Arts District (formerly Gateway district), is the place to find proof. It features a few galleries and a number of work spaces for local artists. On the First Friday of each month, they have an event showcasing local artists and arts-oriented businesses."
