If you are in Las Vegas tonight and are looking for something to do outside of the main strip or are heading to Downtown Las Vegas to check out the Fremont Street Experience, or the hipster bar scene, consider stopping by the First Friday art event on your way. It runs tonight from 5-11pm and is a fun way to check out the galleries in the Arts District. There are activities for kids and adults, music and, of course, food trucks. They also had chalk boards set up to draw on and a painting area (shown above), if you are feeling creative. It’s also a chance to check out the local street art.
