What it doesn t have is a Las Vegas museum.
That could be changing. The city of Las Vegas is in the earliest stages of developing a museum that would chronicle the city s history.
Last month, Mayor Carolyn Goodman, Councilman Cedric Crear, and other members of the Las Vegas Centennial Commission heard a report on creating a museum to chronicle the community’s history.
Both Goodman and Crear told State of Nevada that a key goal of such a project would be to highlight the contributions minority communities made to the evolution of the city.
A possible cautionary tale, though, is the Nevada Museum of Art’s years-long and so far fruitless efforts to expand into Las Vegas. The Reno-based museum said the pandemic forced it to put expansion plans on hold and will revisit the subject in two years.
