A Reception for Four Exhibitions
Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art
January 24, 2025, 5–8 P.M.
Free.
Join us at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art on January 24 as we celebrate the opening of four powerful new exhibitions.
Our Spring roster encompasses a rich array of work, including decades of art by an unsung Las Vegas abstract painter, international poster designs for women’s rights, a group of artists using color in dynamic and surprising ways, and a new painting that meditates on Las Vegas street life at sunrise.
The Marjorie Barrick Museum’s upcoming programming for the first half of 2025 includes a new season of Bus to the Barrick field trips for schools, and free artist-led workshops every month.
The reception event takes place at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art on Friday, January 24, 2025, from 5-8 p.m. Admission is free and everyone is welcome. The four exhibitions opening at this event—Yoko Kondo Konopik: On Canvas, Color Made, AL AMANECER, and Women's Rights Are Human Rights: International Posters on Gender-Based Inequality, Violence, and Discrimination—will be on view at the Marjorie Barrick Museum until Saturday, May 17, 2025.
All of the museum’s galleries are accessible to wheelchair users and other visitors who cannot use stairs. Services such as sign language interpretation can be arranged. Please contact the museum to discuss your needs: barrick.museum@unlv.edu, 702-895-3381.
About the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art
The Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art believes everyone deserves access to art that challenges our understanding of the present and inspires us to create a future that holds space for us all. Located on the campus of one of the most racially diverse universities in the U.S., we strive to create a nourishing environment for those who continue to be neglected by contemporary art museums. As the only art museum in the city of Las Vegas, we commit ourselves to leveling barriers that limit access to the arts. Our collection of artworks offers an opportunity for everyone to develop a deeper knowledge of contemporary art in Southern Nevada. The Barrick Museum is part of the College of Fine Arts at the University of Nevada Las Vegas.
