Recycled Propaganda

Location: The Las Vegas Arts District—a place where the desert heat tries to melt the cynicism off your face, but usually just makes the spray paint dry faster. Most people come to Vegas to lose their shirts at the craps table. If you want to lose your illusions instead, skip the Strip and head to Recycled Propaganda. It’s a storefront on Main Street that sells exactly what the sign says, which is a refreshingly honest start for a city built on fake skylines and stolen dreams. The Merchandise of Dissent Inside, you’ll find Izaac Zevalking (the man behind the brand) doing something truly dangerous: making social commentary affordable. The walls are a firing squad of visual puns and "I-see-what-you-did-there" moments. He takes the corporate logos that own your soul and the political slogans that rot your brain, puts them in a blender with a bit of grit, and serves them back to you on a canvas. Or a sticker. Or a t-shirt. The Sticker Bin: For a few dollars, you can buy a tiny piece of rebellion to slap on your laptop. It’s the ultimate souvenir: portable, provocative, and probably more honest than anything you’ll find in a Caesars Palace gift shop. It’s a clever setup. The gallery is clean, the staff is friendly, and the art is "in your face" without being "up its own." It straddles that uncomfortable line where street art meets the gift shop—a line I’ve spent my life walking until my boots wore out. Is it revolutionary if you can buy it with a credit card? Maybe not. But in a city designed to keep you distracted and docile, any place that asks you to "Question Everything" while you’re reaching for your wallet is doing a public service. Go there. Buy a print. It’ll look great right next to the "Live, Laugh, Love" sign you’re pretending you don't own.

I love Recycled Propaganda!! The guys here are great. They have created such a dynamic community of arts. Art galleries shift artists every 2 months. All the artists are talented and unique.

Such a fun place to visit. I got a few cool stickers and posters. Very happy with the creative theme there.

I love that gallery. I think it’s the best place in art district Las Vegas😊. This will be the third time I have my art show there. Isaac, the extremely friendly and professional guy who runs the gallery, makes the experience enjoyable. I love having my art on display and being part of that journey. I'm looking forward for next time :)

This studio is a must visit in the Arts District. A great venue for newer artists to display and sell their work. This is my new go to shop in Vegas. Can’t wait to see what they showcase next!

Met Michael and Byron, hospitable at its core. Big love from Montreal. Stay alive gang!!!

Myself and my mum popped in here to have a look at the art work. My mum purchased a Vegan activist print. And i spotted these beautiful bongs and pipes. I purchased my dad a pipe and brought all the way back to England, he loves it. I wish I’d purchased myself the bong now! If you are on Main Street pop in and have a look! Great selection of art at affordable prices.

I ordered a gift certificate for my sister-in-law. They went above and beyond!

You know vibes, love the vibes here!! Shout out to everyone here!! Clean, organize, very artistic place!! Selection is great to wall art to middle table art to in a show display art!! Prices are fair not to bad for the art they are collecting!!

Really cool local art gallery and store - I loved all of the street art they had for sale and how they support the local art community. Well worth a stop when you are out in the arts district.

This is a pretty nice gallery that is open late. Lots of modern, street-style art. Prices were higher than I expected, but some prints and stickers are also available. Definitely look everywhere. They make good use of their space.

Cool art . Good customer service ! The name of the store says it all. The art speaks volumes and I love it. This Social Worker appreciated seeing what the art was reminding us of what is rotten in our society. Not all of the art work but most of it . Reasonable prices. Tons of stickers , post cards and other cool items. Def for open minded people .

From murals to stickers, his art challenges the way we see the world - and most of it is for sale. His style is gritty and sometimes shocking, but always meant to get you thinking. Recycled Propoganda also hosts musical talent and immersive experiences on occasion. I recommend you stop by during the next First Friday street fair.

Make the stop, wander through, let yourself get lost in the art. They use different mediums for their art. They sell medium to large signs, canvases, stickers, and other pieces. It's a pretty small shop but speaks volumes - their art will encourage you to question the sort of life you lead. You'll question the world around you and what's considered the norm and how that affects everyone differently.

This was such a fun store to go into! We had passed by it a few times but never got the chance to go inside. There were several art pieces that were interactive and really made you think about how we see the world. I'd love to visit again. It's awesome because I had gotten some art pieces from a random vending machine in the Palms before and it turned out to be the same artist.

Pretty crafty art store/exhibit. Stopped by here after a first Friday in the arts district area. The art in here is very in your face, dynamic, blunt and creative to say the least. Its a very well laid out establishment, walk thru all the way to the back ally- you'll see more art/murals back there as well.

Stumbled across Recycled Propaganda while doing the Big Bus Tour of Vegas. I walked in and was immediately in love with the snarky commentary and street art feel of everything inside. Promptly spent most of my souvenirs budget on art for me and for some friends and subscribed to their social media so I can see when new stuff comes out. Definitely worth the stop for the socially conscious artist who enjoys art that doesn't hold back.

Great art space! There are three rooms. The first is devoted to the art of the store owner, a fellow who grew up in the UK, came to Vegas 10 years ago, and has been building his reputation and art portfolio here ever since. He opened this storefront 4 years ago. The second and third rooms are smaller, and are devoted to showcasing other artists. It's typically local artists, though now and again there are Los Angeles artists. Helpful, enthusiastic staff. Crazy good prices for stickers and postcards (10 for $6!).

Knowledge is power, discover what information can do to the psyche! Propaganda we have been taught is usually "anti" this and that! Listen up, propaganda is usually the truth! And, guess what? "The truth shall set you free!" Propaganda in the title I could not resist the incredible lure that this antiestablishment has on me. Are we going on? Why that's the understatement of the day? We're already here. The music is blaring and it is ringing in my ears with flawless tones and notes of bliss. Any of the brothers of the Ramones would seek solace here among the recycled art. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if your not truly sure how to express your ideas a visit is in order for downtown. Solutions are not recent theory's to all the problems that truly exist in the bubble of life. A way of making some order out of the chaos is through self expression. Throughout history many have taken up the challenge to educate those that could not see the bigger picture that existed right in front of them! It's hard to find those items that an individual might need to showcase their beliefs to the rest of those that will look or read. Let the crew of artists here help you spread that message so that all know how to set the record straight between fact and fiction! For those curious creature in the world, such as my mysterious super self, I crave knowing why something is a certain way. Why can't we do it this way? The typical response, "we have always done it this way, or because!" Let me tell you from a small child my mother always used to say, "because is not an answer." Mom is always right, of course! Why then do so many follow blind? They know no better. Come and frees yourself with a fantastic piece of art to express your new way of thinking. For those financial challenged, they did not forget the "little people," stickers are available. Even this small purchase conveys your views on the world. It can create happiness in your space when displayed. It shows those that see your self expression that this is how I view the world. Who knows it might create that perfect conversation with your next friend! An artist spin to what a beautiful a payphone could really be is truly liberating! This is the artistic expression of recycling such worthy art. Pay phone shells typical are usually vandalized unworthy markers in public spaces as a waste space, or remind us of a time when. Now it's the cell phone that occupies our entire existence. An artist saw the plight that these markers on street could be as an expression of the past. A glimpse back to times when it was simple! Whatever the message the artist is trying to convey is his opinion? Sure it's wonderful to know what inspired the artist to make that piece of art. This payphone that now is a showcase piece can inspire new optimism on what it conveys to you when you enjoy it in your space. A piece of history now liberated and set free to showcase and provide happiness. Let this pay phone spark new curiosity when you add it to that corner that needs "something" to make it look right! "No matter how big the lie, repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as truth!" The liberating JFK used this in his speech to speak out against the Republican Party. JFK was conveying that the Republicans will use something enough that you will grow to find truth in those words. We all know what happened to JFK! Wake up these words original were spit by Hitler. Hitler was a master genius that wanted the world. He had the world on its knees too, who else could get those to believe that they needed more space, the British; not once but twice. Churchill saw through this mastermind but it was too late for, "I told you so!" Let's not be the the silent few that roll over. Be those that do not go quietly into the night. Let those here at Recycled Propaganda be your guide or guise. We all need a helping hand, a place for someone to care . Start here! Those artists that are trying to educate the few that will listen! Let's those hear be the medium to get your message out! Whether you chose to convey a message from through your dress or a sticker on your phone we all have something legit to convey. There are those that have come before us that have that same message you are trying to spit. Spin over to this shop and see if you need some other medium for your same messages. Connect with like minded individuals. Get your art out into the general populas! Trying to find a place to get your art out. Do you feel that your view is special in a significant impact this might be that place for you! Are you the black sheep, and feel disconnected from society! Do you believe in global warming? The recycling of the old to educate the newer generations look no further! Your home! Come and tingle the senses! Liberate your illusions! Art does exist! It's with you!

People? Place? Thing? Izaac and his team at Recycled Propaganda have put together a cultural mash-up of events, ideas, and art, all with a lot of flavorful insight that some agree with and some don't. But that's the fun. These guys have had a very positive impact on the community since moving down here in 2019. Stop by when you first come into the Arts District to make friends and get the lay of the land.

The most famous humanitarian symbolism art gallery in Las Vegas. Artist is also known for multiple human rights murals throughout the city, most famously, the "Fear of COVID in Las Vegas" painting of Hunter S. Thompson, and the Statue of Liberty being arrested. Symbols are a universal language. Symbols might be the final frontier to a unified language- a wiser language, beyond the meme mentality.

Another business pretending to be "woke," but in reality, really isn't. There are other places locally to buy art that actually care about the community in which they reside.
