“The Rita Deanin Abbey Art Museum is not just a space to view art — it is a venue where visitors can truly connect with the creative spirit of a remarkable artist.” ~ Laura Sanders, executive director.
Abbey dedicated her life to exploring and expressing the beauty of the Southwest through her art, a passion that defined the New Jersey native from when she studied at the University of New Mexico. Her diverse work, which she displayed at shows around the world, spans painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, porcelain, and stained glass, often drawing inspiration from the desert landscapes she loved.
Abbey moved to Las Vegas in 1965 to teach at UNLV, where she was among the first art professors. She remained there for 22 years, and the university honored her in spring 2024 by inducting her into the College of Fine Arts Hall of Fame.

Beth was a great presenter and the class was filled with usual information. And the gallery was a great place to hold the class. I will be back to take a closer look at the art work!

I attended the Senior Yoga class with Nicole Scheerer on Sunday. I really enjoyed the nice easy flow and total body stretch she led us in doing. She was very good at cueing and took her time with each move.
After the class we had time to enjoy strolling around the museum. What an amazing collection of artwork and how interesting to see how it changed over the years. I really loved all the different mediums she used in her artwork.
