Cowboys & Christmas! New Art Being Featured At Regis Galerie

Regis Galerie, as part of its recent showroom expansion at the Grand Canal Shoppes inside The Venetian, now features two new shop-in-shop boutiques: one dedicated to Western Art and another featuring Christmas décor all year long.

The dedicated Western Art boutique features work by celebrated artists Jim Regimbal and Joseph Krausz, iconic bronzes by Frederic Remington, and a collection of western items from the estate of Burt Reynolds. Local artists’ work is also featured in the Western Art shop-in-shop, which is located next to the Regis Galerie’s own Coffee Bar and Saloon.

“We invite locals and visitors who plan on venturing out to celebrate all things rodeo in early December to stop by to see our Western Art boutique. The rare and beautiful items we’ve curated as part of the Western Art collection are a must-see,” said Ike Dweck, General Manager of Regis Galerie.

The year-round Christmas boutique will showcase luxurious ornaments, one-of-a-kind holiday figurines and a vast selection of seasonal décor, including variations of Santa Claus, snowmen, angels and nutcrackers, with a wide variety of price points – anchored by a Christmas tree that can be purchased, home delivered, then redecorated by Regis Galerie designers.

“For those looking for the highest quality and most unique Christmas decorations, our new Christmas shop-in-shop experience is open today, but it is also open all other 364 days of the year. In the coming months, the Christmas store will further expand as we build out a Santa’s Workshop-themed boutique,” continued Dweck.

Since opening in 1999, Regis Galerie has long been considered a premiere shopping destination in Las Vegas—providing museum quality works of art, collectables, decorative lighting, luxurious home furnishings and fine jewelry.

Also a part of the recent expansion, additional shop-in-shop boutiques include: the Las Vegas-exclusive Lladró boutique, with one of the largest and most extensive collections in the world; an Asian Art boutique featuring pieces dating back to the 1800s, Jade, Cloisonné, Satsuma and sculptures carved from lapis lazuli, rock crystal, malachite and turquoise; and thousands of one-of-a-kind, custom-made fine jewelry designs for high fashion or everyday wear, including precious metals and exotic stones for women and men.

New Beer Park By Budweiser Coming To Paris Las Vegas In Jan. 2016

Starting in early January, visitors to Las Vegas can enjoy a bird’s eye view and an ice cold brew at the new Beer Park by Budweiser at Paris Las Vegas, the city’s first rooftop bar and grill.

Located on a 10,000-square-foot deck overlooking the world famous Las Vegas Strip, Beer Park will feature an outdoor grill, picnic tables, and more than 100 draft, can and bottle beer selections, including 36 beers on tap. The bar menu will also include craft beer cocktails, signature cocktails and wines on tap, as well as other wines and specialty drinks, including an array of Bloody Marys. The atmosphere will be ideal for watching football games and other sporting events, with towers on each side of the bar housing dozens of high-definition televisions, which offer premium views of the game from any seat.

“Beer Park is inspired by some of the great American pastimes that bring people together; things like going to the ball park for a baseball game, a tailgate party or a picnic at a neighborhood park,” says Matthew Silverman, corporate executive chef of Beer Park. “It’s a treat for the senses, being outdoors and smelling food cooking on the grill, drinking a cold beer, and watching the game while enjoying the view of the Strip from all around you.”

“Anheuser-Busch and Budweiser are excited to launch Beer Park as a first-of-its-kind destination on the Vegas Strip,” said Josh Halpern, Vice President, On-Premise Sales at Anheuser-Busch. “Details like the Budweiser Beechwood Grill and the beer-food pairings make this place a dream for beer drinkers and food lovers alike, and we’ve made sure that the personalities of our brands will enhance the consumer experience in different ways.”

All-American cuisine will be served from the menu as well as from roaming carts serving concession-style offerings. Grill selections are the specialty, with meats and other foods prepared on a custom-made Budweiser Beechwood Grill, which imparts the flavor of the beer into anything from burgers, brisket, ribs or sausages.

All food selections will lead back to Beer Park’s namesake offering, with a recommended pairing for every item, as well as items that will be prepared using different types of beer such as bratwurst bathed in Goose Island IPA and pickles prepared using Stella Artois Cidre. Beer Park will take stadium sweets over the top with items like gourmet funnel cakes and a signature ice cream cart.

Chicago-based design firm, Gensler, has created an atmosphere that combines the feel of a classic baseball stadium and the communal charm of a city park with the spirit of Budweiser; a nostalgic combination that evokes Americana charm. The arrival begins on the lower level, where takeaway offerings such as souvenir cups filled with takeaway daiquiris and beer will be available for purchase. A spiral staircase leads to the upper level, revealing an open-air “park,” designed to bring people together through various seating experiences, including communal picnic tables that encourage socializing and a grassy lawn to play classic bar games like pool, bean bag toss and darts.

High top tables line the rail overlooking the Las Vegas Strip, and a private VIP area is ideal for corporate outings, bachelor parties and other large parties. A rectangular bar is the centerpiece of the room, seating 80 guests. The dining room seats approximately 200 guests, and in total, the space accommodates up to 500 guests.

Modern touches infiltrate the classic design of wood with metal accents, with high-tech features such as taps that pour beers at 31 degrees, the optimal temperature for Budweiser, as well as cold “plates” at each seat of the bar to keep beers cool. Customizable audio is available in various parts of the venue, including the VIP room. A DJ booth is located near the gaming and VIP area, where a DJ will spin weekends and other nights, as well as for special events. A retractable awning offers shade in the daytime, and a view of the stars at night. Misters and heaters ensure a climate-controlled atmosphere any time of year.

Beer Park will be open daily from lunch through late night, transitioning into a bar setting for guests 21 and over at 10 p.m., with early morning openings along with breakfast for football and other morning sporting events. Beer Park is also available for private events and full buyouts, for anything from rehearsal dinners to corporate parties. The phone number for Beer Park is 702.444.4500 the website is www.beerpark.com, and information about private events is available via email at info@beerpark.com. Beer Park is on Facebook at www.facebook.com/BeerParkLV, on Twitter at @BeerParkLV and Instagram at @BeerParkLV.

A GREAT Family Book For The Holidays! Pick Up A Copy Of "Reindeer Dust"

All around the world, families are preparing for a season of magic. Many holiday traditions have existed throughout the years, but one tradition that is quickly sweeping the nation is the fun and festive ritual of sprinkling “reindeer dust” on Christmas Eve to attract Santa’s reindeer. A perfect way to spend time together and get every member of the family in the spirit, it’s no wonder reindeer dust is such a hit; but where and why did the tradition begin?

Kate Dwyer explains in her magical new holiday picture book, Reindeer Dust. In a fun and lyrical tale, readers are immersed in the story of hungry and harried reindeer who can’t find houses to land on through thick fog. Santa has a sled overflowing with presents, but he’ll never be able to deliver them if the reindeer don’t know where to land! One little boy, William, devises a plan: he mixes up a special batch of reindeer dust and he and his friends and family sprinkle it outside while reciting “I will always believe!” Through the fog, the reindeer are able to spot the glittering trail of reindeer dust, and Christmas is saved!

Dwyer, a mother of two and passionate advocate for children’s advancement and literacy, knew she had to share the magic behind reindeer dust when her own family became so attached to the yearly tradition. She aimed to engage children’s imaginations through family participation.
“It was important for me to write a book that features an engaging element that would both visually and physically bring the story to life,” Dwyer says.

With a captivating tale and beautiful illustrations, Reindeer Dust is sure to do just that. After reading about the origin of reindeer dust, families can turn to the back of the book, where there is a special Reindeer Dust Recipe and poem to recite on Christmas Eve. Children will stay engaged and parents will love that reindeer dust encourages a fun and positive new tradition. Why not add a little extra sparkle to the holidays?

Fun for the whole family, Reindeer Dust:

Tells the exciting story about how the “reindeer dust” tradition first began

Includes an easy reindeer dust recipe and special poem to be read on Christmas Eve

Engages the imagination through family participation and captivating illustrations

Inspires a new holiday tradition that the whole family will enjoy

Encourages children to develop a lifetime love of reading

This Repeal Day, December 5,  The Mob Museum, The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, will once again become THE most spirited place in the nation to celebrate the anniversary of the end of Prohibition (December 5, 1933). Join Mayor Carolyn G. Goodman and Oscar B. Goodman at the Museum’s Repeal Day Party, where guests are encouraged to don their finest Prohibition-era attire while they imbibe craft cocktails from some of the city’s best mixologists, play casino table games and enjoy live entertainment by cabaret dancers and a jazz swing band. This year’s event is made possible by Southern Wine and Spirits of Nevada.

A public toast by Oscar Goodman commemorating the anniversary of Repeal Day will highlight the evening. Master of ceremonies for the evening will be Dayvid Figler, prominent trial attorney also known for his Las Vegas expertise and freelance writing.

Back by popular demand, the Boss of the Bars Cocktail Competition will take place during the Museum’s Repeal Day festivities. Open to all bars comprising downtown’s dynamic nightlife scene, the winning bar will receive the monumental, custom-designed Repeal Day Cup to display on their premises until next year’s competition. Last year’s winning bar was Atomic Liquors. In addition to having its name engraved on the Repeal Day Cup for all posterity, the winning bar will also receive a proclamation from the City of Las Vegas deeming it the victor in the “Boss of the Bars” contest. Competitors will craft Prohibition-era-inspired cocktails for a panel of judges including Al Mancini, food and beverage writer, blogger and author; Joy Robertson, host and producer, FoodChannel.com; and Xania Woodman, senior editor, dining, beverage and nightlife, Vegas Seven. Also joining as a judge this year will be Scott Deitche, author of “Cocktail Noir: From Gangsters and Gin Joints to Gumshoes and Gimlets,” a lively look at the intertwining of alcohol and the underworld. Deitche will sign copies of his book the day prior, December 4, from 1-5 p.m. in the Museum retail store.

Designate a sober driver, call a taxi or stay downtown. Driving with a blood alcohol content of .08 is illegal across the country. But the amount of alcohol it takes to get to that number depends on a variety of factors such as how fast you drink, weight and gender. If you’ve had anything to drink, don’t get behind the wheel.
