Looking for a quick fix of contemporary art in southeast Vegas? Well, pardner, be sure and stop by the Winchester Cultural Center by July 22.

There, in the center’s small gallery, The Grand art show is on display.

You can touch a button on a DVD player and watch the hip-hop-notic beat box winner, a fun, stop-start breakdance video by visual artist Damien Gilley. The video was judged best in show and bagged the titular one grand prize.

Also showing are photographs by Gilley, and other works by artists Catherine Borg, Shan Michael Evans, Haya Gil-Lubin, Stephen Hendee, Larry Rogosch, Grayson Ronk and Dustin Sparks.

The Grand show, a yearly event, was juried by contemporary artist Tim Bavington, an MFA graduate from UNLV. Bavington recently had a critically-acclaimed one-man show at G-C Arts, which is located in Downtown Las Vegas’ Arts District.

For more information on the show, call the Winchester Cultural Center at 455-8239.

The Winchester Cultural Center is located at 3130 S. McLeod.
