Description

Step into a night of discovery and delight.

Lied Library celebrates 25 years at the heart of UNLV with the Silver Soirée, an immersive evening inspired by the magic of learning and the power of possibility. Guests will journey through the library in a progressive experience that reveals collections, innovation, and spaces in unexpected ways, brought to life through inspired cuisine and moments of wonder.

At the center of the celebration are the students who power University Libraries every day. Proceeds from the evening support student employment, helping UNLV students gain meaningful experience while contributing to the success of their peers.

Join us as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and invest in the future of knowledge at UNLV.
