Story

The Arts Factory is proud to be the geographic and creative center of the 18b Las Vegas Arts District. The Arts Factory is a 50-year-old commercial warehouse building with traditional bowstring truss architecture. It sits near the junction of Charleston Boulevard and Main Street in an old section of downtown Las Vegas. The conversion of the Arts Factory into a thriving commercial art center started in 1997.

Our artists represent a broad range of contemporary and traditional styles, media, and interests. In addition to its commercial activities, the Arts Factory provides an artistic lifeline and facility for many educational functions and community group meetings, including a weekly Life Drawing class, monthly board meetings of the 18b Las Vegas Arts District Neighborhood Association, the Las Vegas Sculpture Park, UNLV, and local high school student art exhibitions, fund raiser events for notable local and national charities, and the Smithsonian Institute lecture series. The Arts Factory has also provided a unique cultural venue for musical concerts, poetry readings, and live theatrical performances.

The Arts Factory is now home to 23 commercial art-related tenants representing photography, fine art, architecture, graphic design, a yoga school, jewelers, architects, hip bars and restaurants.

The 18b Arts District participates in Gallery Openings and an Art Walk festival on the first Friday of every month – from 6:00pm – 10:00pm. The night before each “First Friday” all our studios are open to give a sneak preview of new artwork – it’s an ideal opportunity to meet our artists without a crowd. “Preview Thursday” has become the unofficial “collector’s night” and runs from 6:00pm – 10:00pm.

Free parking is available at the rear of our building just off Charleston Blvd. and Art Way on a little street called Boulder Ave.
We are also located just 1 short block from the new 18b LV Arts District Bus Station on Casino Center Drive, and one of the stops on the New Downtown LOOP Shuttle Service.

The Arts Factory was a wonderful surprise yesterday on Friday Friday for October 7th. Much bigger than I thought. At the last minute I took my son and we ate the most delicious homemade meat pies with steak, mushrooms and whipped potatoes at the Downtown Crown Pub on the corner. Afterwards, we walked for hours admiring all the art, sculptures, drummers, singers, musicians, wish we had time for the food trucks. The lines made the food look good, especially the various jerky meats, fried ice cream, and funnel cakes. What a great way to start the month leading up to Halloween. Thank you to the group that organizes the event. There were more arts than I could have imagined.

It's extremely important to support the Arts, and just as their name implies this is a great hub for the next generation of the world's leading talented artists. I am intrigued by the way this place is always buzzing with something that is going on. You can see it whenever you're in passing, if you want to experience all of it they're certainly quick to offer a WARM welcome to enter into the factory and be entertained.

Cool little spot in DTLV that showcases a bunch of small businesses in an old Vegas building. Great to visit on First Friday.
