Liberace Museum and
Foundation Celebrates 30 Years
In
April 2009, the Liberace Museum and its foundation celebrate 30 years of
jewel-studded success as a world-famous attraction and a source for scholarship,
promoting music mastery. Liberace was a charismatic and giving man, known the
world over for his showmanship and wearing one-of-a-kind outfits that were
glittered like the lights of Las Vegas. The pianist’s garments were matched by
the ornate styling of his many pianos, many of which are on display at the
museum.
The
April 15 celebration event will feature a full day of festivities at the museum
running from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. with a symbolic 30-cent museum admission
donation. There will be free performances by recipients of the Liberace
Scholarship, Liberace Piano Competition winners and other entertainers. Call
(702) 798-5595 for more information, or visit
www.Liberace.org.
