Sedona Arts Center update for Dec. 21 — Support Our Year End Campaign!

Hundreds of students have the chance to fulfill their artistic dreams through our school. Thousands more enjoy browsing the Members’ Fine Art Gallery and special exhibitions produced by local arts organizations. There is always something about to happen at the Arts Center from our special events and ongoing demonstrations and paint outs, to our Sedona Plein Air Festival, First Fridays, Members Shows and Artists’ Co-ops. Oh, and Loving Bowls is right around the corner with an exciting Silent Auction—a collaborative event starting at noon on December 15th that benefits four local nonprofits!

This year saw many other collaborations and outreach programs.  Dennis Ott worked with kids from the Curtis School on a field trip from Los Angeles, Lake Montezuma’s Sedona Sky Academy and Sedona’s Running River School.  Little Pink Houses, a North Carolina nonprofit dedicated to breast cancer patients and their families participated in a “Fun with Clay” and pizza party evening with 27 children.

The Sedona Film Festival hosted our Summer Filmmaking Camp kids with a field trip to the Mary D. Fisher Theatre to view their finished projects on the big screen.  There was excitement in the air for everyone from beginning to end!

Thanks to an anonymous donor your tax-deductible Year End contribution makes a difference, and, your contribution will be matched dollar for dollar up to $5,000!

One of the things we do, behind the scenes each and every day, is support the development of local artists. We work with hundreds to present their work, offer free training, and connect them with collectors, new commissions, and community partners. For almost 60 years, it’s been a part of our mission. Your gift to our organization is also a gift in support of hundreds of local creative people.

We are constantly evolving our community outreach programming. We do this to bring the arts to more people, build new partnerships, and give back to the our amazing community. Your year-end gift will help us expand our horizons and guarantee a dynamic creative environment for everybody.
