Arts and Crafting



If you’ve lived here in Boulder City for any time at all, you know we like our events! The summer is usually tranquil due to the blazing hot sun, but once September hits, it's game on! Not only is football back, but we begin gearing up for the holidays.

At the end of September, you can find the cars and brats the Sunrise Rotary’s Annual Wurstfest and then right after that is the Boulder City Hospital Foundation's Art in the Park. Both events combined bring thousands of visitors from not only Henderson and Las Vegas, but all over the west. While in town, most will take in shopping and eating as well as visiting our local businesses and hotels.

A large part of the festivities is the artists who come from all over the country to display and showcase their work. You can find metalsmiths, oil painters, potters and watercolor artists along with various homemade crafts and so much more! This is a great way to spend a whole day at Bicentennial Park, walking through the different booths and enjoying a gorgeous stroll through the shaded trees.

One of our very own local artist organizations is the Boulder City Art Guild. Work from the Guild is on display at the Hoover Dam Lodge and the Boulder City Hospital; they also have a new exhibit at City Hall. At their beautiful gallery inside the Boulder Dam Hotel, you will find a welcoming artist/host to show you all the art that is rotated out monthly. Check out their website at BoulderCityArtGuild.com for details on exhibits, art gatherings and artist receptions.

In October, we will begin highlighting all of the amazing holiday events including Trunk or Treat, King Kids Shopping Day and the various Christmas Events happening. Oh, and watch for details on the National Shop Small day coming in November!
