UNLV Barrick Museum kicks off the new school year - and a new mission - with a bang!

On Wednesday, September 14 from 7 - 9 pm, the UNLV Barrick Museum is throwing a party to kick off the new school year and to celebrate it’s new status as a museum focused primarily on fine arts and cultural history. Called the “Rebel Art Party,” the event will take place in the museum’s historic exhibition hall, one of the oldest buildings on the UNLV campus, amidst the museum’s extensive permanent collection and the photography exhibition “Great Basin Exteriors”.

In addition, food and refreshments will be served, a food truck will be parked at the museum’s entrance, and Vegas-based DJ Scream will perform on the museum’s Garden Patio. Other activities will include a spin-art booth where visitors can create their own spin-art painting and an airbrush tattoo booth. Local artists will also be live painting and sculpting at the museum. It’s a chance to learn more about the Barrick, its programs and events, and how students and community members can become more involved at the museum.
