Description: Made possible by a grant from Nevada Humanities, Mob Museum Advisory Council Member and artist Miguel Hernandez painted a beautiful depiction of Southern Nevada in the 1940s.

The city also underwent major casino development Downtown, including the addition of the El Cortez Hotel & Casino and Golden Nugget Las Vegas which are depicted in the mural. El Rancho Vegas, Hotel Last Frontier and Flamingo Las Vegas, known as Highway 91 at the time, are also incorporated into the artwork.
The mural, available for viewing now, is the first segment of a larger mural. The continuation of the artwork will commence in the coming weeks showcasing Las Vegas predating the 1940s.
Miguel Hernandez is a Las Vegas based artist, originally from Los Angeles. Hernandez began his artistic career as the Zappos resident artist. His artwork has brought him across several states and can be found at the Zappos campus, local businesses, schools, music festivals and various charity events.
