Are there any outdoor areas available?
Yes, one of Las Vegas' best kept secrets is Heritage Park. The city park adjoins the Museum and offers covered picnic tables, playground amenities, etc. Because of its designation as a children's park, only those accompanying a child under the age of 12 may enjoy the park.
