Welcome
Welcome to the newly established Las Vegas (NM) Literary Salon (LVLS).
Not to be confused with any salons in the “other Las Vegas,” the Las Vegas Literary Salon (LVLS) is located in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Range of the Great Rocky Mountains and is devoted to writers, readers, and thinkers of the Greater Las Vegas area.
Where Do Books Come From?
I read before I started school.
No one set out consciously to teach me, nor did I entertain a plan to learn.
What is the Literary Salon
Howdy! We’re glad you’re here.
Las Vegas Literary Salon hosted its first event Sunday, July 12, thanks to the Las Vegas Arts Council and the Las Vegas NM Community Foundation.
