Introducing the most fascinating happy hour in Las Vegas!

Join us for our first monthly History Happy Hour at the Nevada State Museum, Las Vegas. Unwind from your day with a glass of wine (or other refreshment) and enjoy an engaging talk with Latino history expert, Michael J. Alarid, Associate Professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Professor Alarid’s talk — “The Road to California is Paved in Blood: Connecting the Old Spanish Trail from New Mexico Territory to Las Vegas, and Beyond” — serves as an introduction to the Museum’s upcoming exhibit, The Old Spanish Trail: Connecting a Network of Paths, opening in November. Professor Alarid will explore colonization, violence, resistance, and social accommodation among the Hispanos and Pueblo Peoples involved in the arduous, 700-mile journey from the village of Santa Fe to the Pueblo of Los Angeles.

This free event includes an audience Q&A and access to museum exhibits following the lecture.
