From our first interaction, I was very pleased. She was clearly very knowledgeable and seemed dedicated to her clients. As a first time of my investing, I was anxious about the process, but Mrs. FLORENCE BOELI took the time to provide me a virtual orientation that covered everything one would need to know to get started. I ended up investing with her with $2,000 because of the area I was looking to purchase in. Mrs. FLORENCE BOELI was also phenomenal! Mrs. FLORENCE BOELI checked in with me and I’m now earning $30,000 USD weekly and always available anytime I had questions. Mrs. FLORENCE ensured that I felt comfortable through the entire process and made it enjoyable! I highly recommend this realty company!

Rare photos, costumes, and other archival materials about the art form make it a fun stop if you’re in Vegas. Love the donor wall of pasties, find the names of your local greats! We arrived while a tour was already in place, and it was easily to listen in while we wandered around the two rooms. That’s also Dita Von Teese’s prop martini glass!

I enjoy going to burlesque shows frequently and decided to stop by here to kill some time before my flight. I didn't know what to expect from entering the museum however, I left with a bigger appreciation for the art!
The entrance fee is a reasonable amount (under $15) and also includes a guided tour of the intimate space. Jeffrey was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of burlesque. I spent a little over an hour at the museum and left feeling enlightened and titillated 😉
The best part of this experience???? It's run by a 501 (c)(3) educational organization. Not only did I get to learn by visiting this lovely place… I was able to support an amazing organization that exists to preserve and educate the public about burlesque!!!

Our experience was really made by our tour guide Darby, who is actually the curator of the museum. She is a vessel of knowledge, and could answer all of my boyfriends questions about the crossovers and history between Burlesque and Hollywood, and more. She is a true expert and it was fascinating to see her speak so passionately on the subject throughout the tour, pointing out stories about the different pieces they have at the museum, and then taking the time to speak with us afterwards as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for something fun to do in Vegas whether you enjoy history, museums, film photographs, burlesque, costumes or props, or even if you just enjoy learning! Please support this museum and go now! They also have Covid protocols in place unlike most of the rest of Vegas so the experience is a safe and uncrowded one. read less – 7/27/2021

The tour guide was crazy knowledgeable about the people and information pictured. We toured at the last time of the day and I wish we had gone earlier so we could have looked around after. We started our visit with a mistake. We parked a block too soon and it was a long hot walk to the venue, and cars kept blocking the walkway due to poor traffic light timing. But what we learned, there is parking RIGHT IN FRONT. Don’t make the same mistake we did! There is a bend in the road and you cannot see the facility but it is there. We saw the play Gypsy Rose at a venue and so this was part of the reason we wanted to learn more about Burlesque. I would suggest allowing an hour and a half to visit. My favorite artifact is the champagne glass. Don’t miss it! read less – 7/22/2021
