Our public relations division loves making news for our clients. We’re kind of geeky about it, actually. So each week we’re going to start sharing some of the clips of which we are most proud. And away we go…

Chef Geno Bernardo of Nove Italiano inside the Palms is one of the only chefs on The Strip serving locally-grown, organic produce. 8 News NOW went with him to the farm where he grows the food he serves – often the very same day – to his diners at Nove.  It’s farm to table… in the middle of the desert! Click here to check out the segment.

KTNV-TV (Now KSNV-TV) was just one of three television stations that covered Easter Seals of Southern Nevada’s free Autism Workshop.  The state legislature has recently given parents of autistic children options when it comes to service providers for their children up to age 3, making it very important to communicate the message that Easter Seals brings. See the video on the Easter Seals Facebook Page.

Blue Man Group at The Venetian showed off its one-of-a-kind inventiveness to Southern California with an appearance on KTLA’s Morning Show.

Kirvin Doak worked with travel writer Susan Kime on a feature story for Luxist.com regarding her stay at ARIA Resort & Casino as well as the opening of Veer Towers, CityCenter’s fully-residential towers. Her story captured the breathtaking nature of the property and the images provided a visual narrative of the new condos. It’s all here.

And finally, what would summer be without a pool party? We worked with 90210’s AnnaLynne McCord and Twilight’s Kellan Lutz as they hosted the former’s birthday party at WET REPUBLIC. The event received tremendous national coverage, including this feature in USA Today. Take a look.
