Fifth Street School: A Cultural Gem
The Historic Fifth Street School, located in downtown Las Vegas, blends culture and history. Often referred to simply as the Las Vegas Grammar School, this Mission-style building was first constructed in 1936. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
From School to Cultural Hub
A $9.5 million renovation in the 2000s enabled the building to be converted into a cultural center. Today, it is home to organizations like the UNLV Downtown Design Center, Nevada School of the Arts, and the American Institute of Architects: Las Vegas Chapter. It is also host to the Las Vegas Book Festival and art and musical shows by certain performers and artists.
