The Corner Gallery

The Corner Gallery offered a creative space where culture and creativity collided. Located inside the Las Vegas Arts Factory, within the City of Las Vegas's 18B Art District, the Gallery featured local and emerging artists through themed shows that rotated monthly.

The Gallery was a gathering place for all forms of art, offering free contemporary performances featuring an eclectic mix of musicians,  readings, poetry, discussion, storytelling, and a variety of classes from  acting and dance, to art, and writing.

The Gallery brought together a network of creative thinkers, offering monthly meetings of NeoThinkers, local authors, intuitives, and UFO aficionados. 

The artwork went beyond the margins of the traditional, in offering opportunities for emerging and unknown artists, setting no boundaries for their creativity.  

Among the many shows in the Gallery were Ink from the Pen, showcasing prison artists, a retrospective of AP photographer, Barry Sweet (personal photographer for Bobby Kennedy,) and a show of work by young adults with learning disabilities, these were among the many important community shows and events that took place in The Corner Gallery.
