We haven’t seen this announced officially yet, but we hear a new fine arts museum has been approved for Symphony Park in downtown Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

Las Vegas has a deep and abiding dearth of good art, so this is fantastic news.<\/p>\n

From what we understand, the museum is being supported in a big way by Elaine Wynn.<\/p>\n

\"\"
This is not downtown Las Vegas. That’s because The Strip is more attractive than downtown. Yeah, we said it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There aren’t a lot of details about the museum itself, but the location will be next to The Smith Center.<\/p>\n

Elaine Wynn, of course, is the ex-spouse of Steve Wynn, and while he took an awkward tumble from grace due to his harassment shenanigans, Elaine Wynn continues to run the show at Wynn Resorts. She’s the biggest individual shareholder of the company, second only to Vanguard Group for share ownership.<\/p>\n

There’s way too much drama in the Wynn saga to include it all here, so we’ll just pass along this gem.<\/p>\n

On the heels of Wynn Resorts General Counsel Kim Sinatra being shown the door, can CEO Matt Maddox be far behind? Rumblings are Elaine Wynn will step up her involvement in the company, and unlikely both will be involved. pic.twitter.com\/J6eIencW2B<\/a><\/p>\n
