Las Vegas Design Center (LVDC) presents two events in May, the hallmark “First Friday” education with a Cinco de Mayo celebration of Mexican design and architecture hosted by Hooker Furnishings on May 3, and the Spring Sample Sale on May 15-17.

“With two events, one networking and educational and the other for mid-market sourcing, there’s no better way to bring the design community together this May,” said Cain Brodie, general manager of LVDC. “The two events at LVDC this May will offer full opportunities for the local design community to learn, network, celebrate design and complete any shopping to restock products through July.”

LVDC First Friday

Attendees of the May First Friday session will celebrate Cinco de Mayo and learn about the brilliance and creativity of Mexico’s architects, designers, artists and furniture makers. The session will explore the history and processes of visionaries like Luis Barragan and Jose Clemente Orozco, and the contributions these talents have made to Mexico’s rich culture and the world of architecture and design. Following the discussion, session participants are invited to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a taco bar and desserts.

The May “First Friday” session will be held at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, May 3 in the Hooker Furnishings showroom, A236. Registration is required online. The next First Friday session is scheduled for Friday, June 7.
