Las Vegas, NV - Activities

Museums

Atomic Testing Museum

This is not your traditional museum, affiliated with the Smithsonian; this museum is staffed with volunteers who used to work at the testing site. The site was operational from 1951 to 1992 when testing became banned. There are hundreds of thousands of classified documents and photos and plenty of hands-on exhibits to keep young and old alike busy.

Liberace Museum

In a city that celebrates excess, this museum is right at home. Guests can enjoy displays of jewels, costumes, pianos, cars and more. Liberace was the king of bling before bling existed. Despite his ostentatiousness, Liberace has done a lot of good with his celebrity status. Portions of the proceeds from the museum go to fund the Liberace Foundation which has given over $5M in scholarships to art students worldwide.
