Henderson is the second-largest city in Nevada, adjacent to Las Vegas, and its arts scene benefits from proximity to the metropolitan area's cultural infrastructure while offering a more community-oriented creative environment. The City of Henderson's cultural programming, centered on the Henderson Pavilion and the DISCOVERY Children's Museum, supports an active public arts program and a growing cluster of galleries and studios in the Water Street District - Henderson's historic downtown corridor that has undergone significant revitalization. The community's relative affordability compared to Las Vegas proper has attracted working artists who supply the gallery district with a consistent stream of new work rooted in the Mojave Desert landscape.
