Opening Hours: Center vs. Fitness Room
The main community center and its fitness room follow different operating hours.

- Read the class details. Check the participant’s age, location, schedule, start and end dates, fees and prerequisites.

- Register and pay if required. Follow the official system’s instructions rather than using third-party payment requests.

If online availability or the class category is unclear, call 702-455-1220 and ask staff for the exact current program code or registration steps.
Senior Room, Computer Lab and Community Support

| Senior Room | Free registration; ask about scheduled activities. |
| Fitness Room | Paid daily, monthly or yearly membership. |

Public Art Gallery
The center also hosts a Clark County public-art gallery. One exhibition, Para las Hijas Mayores (for the Eldest Daughters) by Yazmin Garcia, is scheduled from August 25 through October 22, 2026, with a closing reception on October 22 from 5:30–7:30 PM.
Gallery admission and event conditions should be checked with the County’s Public Arts team. This exhibition is time-limited rather than a permanent attraction.

How to Book a Room or Gym
- Choose your activity and venue. Decide between a classroom, multipurpose room, aerobics room, gym, kitchen or outdoor area.
- Estimate attendance. Compare your guest count with the published room capacity.
- Call Pearson at 702-455-1220. Ask whether your desired space and date are available and which rate applies.
- Open the County Facility Rental Request Form. Prepare your contact details, group name, event purpose, attendance and date.
- Include setup and breakdown time. Your rental time needs to account for the full event, not only when guests are present.
- Visit the community center. The official reservation page says renters must come in person to complete the request form.
- Confirm charges and pay as instructed. Ask about room price, staffing, cleaning, any deposit and cancellation terms before making payment.
- Keep the approved reservation documents. Do not advertise the space as booked until County staff confirms the arrangement.
Track and Field Reservations

The track and field request PDF warns that requests submitted less than two weeks in advance may not be approved.
Address, Parking and Directions
Pearson Community Center is at 1625 W. Carey Avenue, west of North Martin Luther King Boulevard in the North Las Vegas area.
Arriving for a Class or Event
- Search for Pearson Community Center, not just Carey Avenue.
- Allow extra time before registration, a sports session or a large event.
- Follow designated entrances and parking signage.
- Ask staff about accessible entrances or accommodations for your activity.
- For rentals, confirm unloading, setup access and guest parking before the event.
The County’s official pages do not provide a verified parking-space count for this facility, so avoid relying on an estimated capacity from third-party listings.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Arriving Too Late for Fitness
The center may remain open after the fitness room has closed for the day.
Assuming Computer Access Is Paid
The official center page lists free registration for the computer lab.
Using Old Program Fees
Older brochures show historical class prices. Use the current registration listing for actual fees.
Assuming Gym Availability
Classes, team practices and rentals can restrict open gym use.
Using the Wrong Commercial Rental Rate
The County’s webpage and rental PDF differ. Confirm the final quote with staff.
Forgetting Rental Staffing
Required personnel and setup time may add costs beyond the listed room rate.
