WELCOME TO THE CELEBRATION
Step into a world where creativity knows no bounds. The 35th Annual Celebration of Fine Art returns from January 18 to March 30, 2025, transforming Scottsdale, Arizona, into a haven for artistic inspiration. Inside the sprawling 40,000-square-foot iconic white tent, you’ll discover a vibrant gathering of exceptional artists, each bringing their vision, talent, and passion to life. Each artist has reimagined their space as a personal studio retreat, a sanctuary where creativity flourishes and masterpieces come to life. As you wander these intimate studios, you are invited to witness the artistic process in its purest form—a harmonious blend of precision, inspiration, and dedication that transforms raw materials into treasures. Far more than an art show, the Celebration of Fine Art offers a rare and meaningful opportunity to engage with the artists themselves. Explore the stories, techniques, and profound insights that elevate their work, and experience art as it is meant to be experienced: up close, personal, and alive. We invite you to indulge your senses and your spirit as you explore this celebration of boundless human expression. Whether you are an aficionado, collector, or simply a lover of beauty, this is your invitation to revel in the splendor of fine art.
Join us each Friday at 4 pm for the hour-long Art Discovery Series in the Celebration Café.

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. 2025 Art discovery series The Celebration of Fine Art Presents:
Sponsored by:
2/7: HEAVY METAL – For those who choose metal as their media, they must combine the art of design, fabrication and sheer grit to massage the rigid and cold metal into graceful works of art by cutting, grinding and assembling. Discover how they bring together grit and creativity. 2/14: DRAWING ON EXPERIENCE – Drawing skills are the foundation of design and have been used as a form of communication since the beginning of time. It is one of the most fundamental creative disciplines associated with observation and problem solving. Discover the importance of this technique and how artists have mastered it. 2/21: THE ART OF COLLECTING AND SHOWCASING YOUR COLLECTION – Part of the joy of collecting art is building a collection that expresses your personality and story, and often that means mixing genres and mediums. Discover how to bring it all together to make the most of your collection. 2/28: VITAMIN (A)RT: HOW ART PROMOTES WELL-BEING – The creation of art has long been used as a healing mechanism, but it turns out, viewing it has super powers too. Discover how color, texture and the subject matter impact our cognition and overall well-being. 3/7: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE VS. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE – AI has officially infiltrated various aspects of our daily lives. Most of us interact with it in some capacity without even knowing it. But when it comes to art, where does AI fit in? Should it fit in? Or should art remain our connection to true handcraft––to emotional intelligence vs. artificial? 3/14: JOURNEY INSIDE THE CREATIVE PROCESS – Bringing a piece of art from start to finish is often a multi- layered process that may involve travel and exploration, collecting objects, photography, digital tools, and layers of substrates, techniques and other media. Discover the layered journey these artists take to create a single work of art. 3/21: THE NEW OLD WEST – Modern and Western are two words that don’t often appear together in the art world. But there are some artists who challenge this notion, introducing a vibrant, modernist twist on art of the West. Meet the artists who, whether through color, style or subject matter, are breaking the rules and exploring new possibilities to create a distinctive take on Western art. 3/28: SCULPTING WITH GEMS AND PRECIOUS METAL – At the hands of a skilled artist, jewelry can transcend adornment to become a piece of fine art, but it requires the keen eye of a jeweler, deft hands of a metalworker and the creativity of a sculpture artist. Discover the intricate artistry, traditional craftsmanship and innovation that goes into crafting jewelry. 1/24: FLOWER POWER – Humans have a unique connection to flowers––biologically, emotionally, socially and aesthetically. They are symbols of abundance, life, affection, beauty, joy, and positivity. Their complexity––texture, color, shape, behavior––is magnetizing and creates limitless opportunities for enjoyment and exploration through art. 1/31: FACES AND FIGURES – Capturing the emotion and soul of the human spirit in a portrait or figurative painting is a gift. It takes both skill and intuition to convey the feelings, emotions and intricacies of the human form. Learn from some of our expert interpreters.
