Las Vegas Loses One Arts Org, Gains Another

Well, not too long ago I mentioned that Las Vegas seemed committed to its growing museum population, and while the Las Vegas Art Museum is now closed, Las Vegas is now going to break ground on the new $475 million Smith Center for the Performing Arts. Apparently this new multi-purpose center will be specifically geared towards locals rather than tourists in hopes of creating a richer cultural scene for those who actually live in the Vegas area, as opposed to the art endeavors at the casinos that have been aimed at tourists.
