"Rhythm and Resilience: Black Vegas" explores African American life in Las Vegas from the arrival of its first Black resident through the 1980s, tracing the impacts of segregation and racial barriers while celebrating the creativity, resilience and achievements that shaped the city’s character. Beginning with John Howell, the first African American settler, it follows the growth of a downtown Black community and its forced relocation in the early 20th century to what became the Historic Westside. Despite systemic exclusion, this neighborhood emerged as a vibrant cultural and social hub where residents built businesses, churches and civic organizations, cultivated music and nightlife that drew world-class performers, and organized for civil rights and equity. By honoring these histories, the exhibition invites visitors to reflect on the enduring legacy of the African American community and its lasting influence on the identity, spirit and future of Las Vegas. The exhibition is curated by Carmen Beals and narrated by Claytee White.
