"These days, art in Vegas is not elite. We're trying to make it public, fun, and engaging. And I think people really appreciate that. They like walking around and seeing these works just pop up. And it's important culturally, too—if they only do one trip a year, for example, they know that if they come to Vegas they can get different kinds of experiences without necessarily going out of their way. With art, especially, it's all public, free, and open. Everyone can benefit." - Tarissa Tiberti, Executive Director of MGM Resorts Art & Culture
