The Junior League of Las Vegas has graciously agreed to host our monthly meeting at the famed Morelli house. This home was saved from the Desert Inn Country Club and restored by the Junior League of Las Vegas.
The house is only open by appointment only or for certain events. We thank the Junior League for their generosity and hospitality.
