Welcome to the 34th annual Celebration of Fine Art January 13 through March 24, 2024. Housed in the 40,000 square foot big white tent in the heart of Scottsdale, AZ, this extraordinary event brings together some of the most talented artists, each with a unique vision and passion for their craft. Each artist has transformed their studio space into vibrant hubs of creativity, where they meticulously craft and breathe life into their masterpieces.

Each Friday from 4 to 5 pm, discover the inspiration, techniques and stories behind the creation of art. Enjoy wine, cheese and artistic dialogue at informative panel discussions and demonstrations. 2024 Art discovery series The Celebration of Fine Art Presents:

Sponsored by:

2/2: MIXING OF MEDIA – There is an art to mixing various media to create complete and comprehensive works of art. Learn where the creative vision comes from and how artists decide which elements to combine as they build their inspirational works of art. 2/9: MULTI-DIMENSIONAL JEWELRY – Jewelry is art in the wearable form. These miniature sculptures are constructed from a variety of materials often combining carving, weaving, metalsmithing, and stone placement. Hear from some of our multi-talented jewelers. 2/16: NATURE CALLS – Wildlife and nature have been the muse of artists for centuries. For many, being out in nature and experiencing the wild feeds the soul and renews the spirit. Wildlife artists capture the sensation of being close to nature and allow us to bring it home. Discover the stories shared through their works of art. 2/23: REALISM REVEALED – Some works of art invite a second look to determine if it is a painting or if it is real. The trompe l’oeil style of painting creates an optical illusion of three-dimensional space and objects on a two-dimensional surface. Discover the inspiration and techniques that imbue these works with life. 3/1: UNEXPECTED MEDIUMS – In the hands of an artist almost any material can be turned into a work of art. Discover the creative vision that inspires artists to use unexpected media to incorporate and convey their message through their works of art. 3/8: LURE OF THE LANDSCAPE – Paul Cezanne once said, “To paint from nature is not to paint the subject, but to realize sensations.” The infinite colors, textures, layers and light create the atmosphere that artists strive to capture. Discover how the artists capture and share these sensations on canvas. 3/15: LIFE THROUGH THE LENS – In the hands of a fine art photographer, the camera is just one of the tools that leads to exquisite works of art. Discover what inspires them to capture their chosen subject matter. Learn how they then interpret and process the images to capture emotion and a moment in time. 3/22: THE LONG RUN – The artistic journey is as diverse as the subjects and styles of art that we enjoy. There is more to the life of the artist than what we see before us. Learn from some of our long-time artists about what it takes to make it and sustain the life of an artist––and specifically how the Celebration of Fine Art has impacted them. 1/19: THE WAY OF THE WEST – The history of the Western Cowboys, Buckaroos and Native Americans has an intrigue that has captured the hearts of many artists and collectors. Hear what inspires these artists and how they are preserving the history of the West through art. 1/26: ARCHITECTURE & ART INFLUENCE – Art and architecture have influenced each other throughout time. Learn how artists have been inspired by architecture and how they incorporate architectural elements into their designs. Also, discover how art can enhance the architectural elements of a home or building.
