I'm not an expert on fine art, but I can appreciate something beautiful, something that has survived for centuries, and anything with historical significance. So anytime there is an art gallery nearby, no matter what the exhibit, I do enjoy stopping in to take a look.
My husband and I were passing some time on our last day in Vegas while waiting to leave for the airport. Figured the art gallery would be a nice, relaxing way to spend an hour or so. Entrance fee ($17) was relatively inexpensive, surprisingly, seeing that everything else we'd done in Vegas up to that point had been rather pricey.
I can't remember the name of the exhibit we'd seen - it wasn't anything too famous like Andy Warhol (earlier this year) or Faberge (coming soon). But the paintings were mostly early 1900s it seemed. We were also given little handheld audio devices where we could listen to more information regarding maybe 20 of the paintings.
The only issue I had with the gallery was that it was rather small. Maybe 3 or 4 rooms. We definitely went through it in well under an hour, and when we got out we were like, That's it?! Not that a gallery can't be small; it's just not what we were expecting.
Art galleries are my go-to thing to do when I run out of other things to do. I would definitely go back again if there was an exhibit that sounded interesting.
