First Friday is a hit! Downtown Las Vegas enjoys locals event

Joey Vanas, Managing Partner of First Friday Las Vegas, with artists Nicholas Blackham and Corey Anderson

First Friday Las Vegas wowed locals on Friday night with an estimated attendance of around 10,000 people throughout the night. The event, which took place both in the original location of Casino Center and Colorado, as well as the first expanded location at Fremont Street East, drew fans of art and culture from around the valley. Art, music, food and all around fun took place until midnight.

First Friday Las Vegas managing partner Joey Vanas made one of the first purchases of the night – a piece titled “Forever Happy” by artists Nicholas Blackham and Corey Anderson ($1500 in case you need the cost).

This is the first piece that will be included in the First Friday collection.

Attendees from out of state also made their way out, including the founders of the Burning Man festival.
