About Smallworks


Smallworks began in 1997, the fruit of the efforts of Kathleen Nathan and James Stanford. After working for several years to build up the Contemporary Arts Collective, Nathan and Stanford decided it was time to fill a sorrowfully lacking void in Las Vegas: a cutting-edge, professional, private contemporary art gallery. The gallery was located in downtown Las Vegas at The Arts Factory. Into its fourth season, Smallworks management closed its gallery space to pursue other opportunities.

Founded in 2006, Smallworks Press is an award-winning publishing company specializing in art and culture publications with a commitment to the highest standard in design, quality, and production. The Smallworks Press team enjoys collaborating with a wide spectrum of authors to create publications with impressive illustrations and photography, inspiring and thought-provoking essays, and an attention to detail rarely found in publishing today.
