The Nevada State Museum relocated from Lorenzi Park and opened on the Springs Preserve property in October 2011. The two-level, 70,000-square-foot building is now closer to the Strip (about 15 minutes) and is twice the size of its old location. According to a museum tour guide, visitors to the museum have stayed as short as 15 minutes and as long as nine hours. The museum features a 13,000-square-foot gallery with permanent exhibits, a research library, a gift shop, lecture rooms and a banquet hall, complete with a spacious outdoor balcony overlooking the Springs Preserve and the Strip. It is divided into two sections -- its permanent fixtures and a rotating exhibit, which changes every few months.

Hours of operation: Thursday through Monday 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. Closed Thanksgiving and Christmas day.
Admission to the Nevada State Museum is included with paid admission to the Springs Preserve: Adults $18.95, Seniors 65 and older and students 18 and older $17.05, Children 5-17 years old $10.95, Children 5 and younger are free. Nevada residents: Adults $9.95, Children (ages 3-17) $4.95.
Plenty of free parking.
