City Lights Art Gallery

City Lights Art Gallery, at 3 E Army St in Henderson, offers visual arts programming for kids ages 3 through 18, split into three brackets: 3 to 5, 6 to 12, and 13 to 18. That range from preschool age through high school means the gallery has built its class structure to work with very different developmental stages rather than running one all-ages workshop.

Programs include Weekly Art Classes for kids enrolled in an ongoing series, Kids Art Workshops for shorter or one-off sessions, Parent and Child Classes that let a parent create alongside a younger child, and a Summer Art Camp for families looking for a school-break option. Because the gallery includes exhibition space alongside its working art studio, students may have the chance to see their work displayed in a real gallery setting rather than only taking it home after class.

Hours run Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m., with the gallery closed on Mondays. That afternoon-only window means this works best for families who can bring a child in during early afternoon rather than needing an evening or morning slot, so parents with only after-work availability should check whether a specific class or workshop offers an alternate time.

No pricing, scholarship, or special needs accommodation details are listed in this record, so families should call (702) 260-0300 or visit citylightsartgallery.org to ask about class fees, whether financial assistance is available, and whether the gallery can accommodate a child with specific needs. The gallery operates year round rather than on a school-year-only schedule, meaning new students are not limited to enrolling only at the start of a semester.

For a family looking for a program that combines hands-on art instruction with an actual gallery and exhibition space, City Lights offers something a standard art class does not: kids can see their work exhibited alongside other artists, giving the classes a sense of real audience and purpose beyond the studio walls.
