Public Art Surrounds Sun City
Video by Jeannette Carrillo/Link
Las Vegas Academy of the Arts students paired with Sun City Art Club members to create works of art bordering Sun City this summer as part of the city of Las Vegas’ AMP public art program. Students received a stipend for their work, and got a unique opportunity to be mentored by experienced and professional artists. Artwork featured here was completed by Kylee Shay and Debby Resnik, bottom right; Alejandro Ponce and Susan Neiry, top; and Brandom Terres-Sanchez and Quwatha Valentine, bottom left (students’ names appear first as part of each team.)
