An Affair With The Arts is an biannual outdoor arts festival held at the West Valley Art Museum the second weekend of March and November each year. This festive event showcases juried fine artists working in various mediums from brilliant oils to glorious glass. Live music and great food romance both the ear and palate. A fine art silent auction furthers the up-beat atmosphere. Indoors one discovers exciting and powerful exhibitions the Museum has become known for. This is a fun time where you can abandon your inhibitions and have An Affair With The Arts.
An Affair With The Arts at the West Valley Art Museum includes skilled artists from Arizona and surrounding states that are showing and selling their work around the Museum for two fun-filled days. Every year art lovers and collectors return to see newly created artistic works by prominent and emerging artists. Traditional and innovative materials and styles are showcased including sculptural works in clay, glass, metal, wood, marble, and found objects. Other fine art mediums will include oil, watercolor, acrylics, photography, and glass mosaic. The art ranges in size from the perfect fit for a wall, desk, or shelf to monumental sized pieces. Proceeds earned by the Museum during the event help continue the outstanding educational and cultural opportunities it offers the community.
West Valley Art Museum Is Requesting Your Support to Secure Artworks for the An Affair with the Arts Silent Auction.
We offer a 50/50 split for non-participating booth artists.
