This week, Monday By the Numbers is on the case and cases at Southern Wine & Spirits of Nevada.
In a case of offering equal space to those not old enough to imbibe, we also track Las Vegas Philharmonic’s Youth Concert Series, which is part of L.V. Phil’s educational-outreach program and invites thousands of Clark County School District grade-school students to experience a Philharmonic concert.
The first of these performances are Thursday and Friday. Three more are set for January.
