Think of an average art gallery. Among the images that come to mind, where do advertising, computer graphics and billboard and architectural design fall? Generally not within the walls of a gallery, which is a situation Art Institute of Las Vegas instructors set out to remedy late last month with the opening of a gallery inside the school.

The space is open to the public, and -- according to Kevin Anderson, a graphic design and illustration instructor and chair of the gallery committee -- will host a rotating exhibit of student and faculty work highlighting the sort of art and design work that is rarely seen in traditional art galleries.
