Good day to everyone, please checkout the art exhibits that are highlighted in the "KING" gallery, Creations of love I've attached just a few so if you are in Scottsdale visit the place. Lovely people within the establishment working diligently with new restrictions is not easy.

Thanks for the exceptionally thoughtful gestures. My life's ora not washed off deck just hidden deeper into my portrait... Happy Merry Christmas & New Year.

We live in the Phoenix area and have visited Exposures for the past several years. It is always a wonderful experience and we have purchases several pieces of art from them. The variety of art/artists is great and ranges in price from comfortable purchases to high end collector values. They have done a superb job of picking out diverse artists and feature them in diverse selections of work in glass, mixed media, paintings and sculpture. The jewelry features in the gallery is also very unique and appealing. We have purchased a number of paintings/pieces from Exposures and the pricing is very good for such a nice gallery, especially being in Sedona. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They have never been overbearing or pushy, but are always available to answer questions and help with ideas for placement, display, combining artists, etc. We have dealt with Jennifer Garcia, who I believe is a manager, and cannot say enough good things about her. She seems to get a “sense” for your taste to the point that we seek her out for paintings, artists as well as framing suggestions. Very solid gallery with amazing work. Definitely worth a one time visit but even better if you can frequent and even attend some of their artist-driven shows.

Hidden in an unassuming warehouse building, a labyrinth of galleries exhibits thousands of paintings and sculptures from the Basha family's private collection. I spend hours there upon each visit. Admission is free, so please donate generously. It will be the most extraordinary collection of western art that you will ever see!

I make a point of visiting local artisan galleries wherever I travel. I don't always find something I like. On the contrary, at the Fountain Hills Artists' Gallery, I ALWAYS find something I like and want, either for myself or a gift. They are on my constant itinerary for out of town visitors. There is an eclectic group of artists and media, all artfully arranged--truly something for everyone. They are always organizing fun and creative ways to expose the gallery--a specific theme for a fun evening, or classes (and I've taken a couple of classes; people actually think I'm an ARTIST when they see my creations!). Even during our coronavirus quarantine, they are keeping in touch with their art family and showing their works online. BRAVO! They deserve our support!

If you love seeing the largest collection of the finest of artists, head to the unique venue of the Celebration of Art on N. Scottsdale Road. Don't drive too fast because it is easy to miss the sign among the desert fauna and cactus. Worth every minute and tickets not expensive.

We spent the afternoon walking through historic Jerome and went down the side street stumbling onto this great little gym. We sat and watched this incredible artist work and fill us with some of his knowledge that you know was only scratching the surface of what he knows ... We are so glad we chose to open those corrugated tin doors and step inside. We purchased four glasses and I put them on the shelf with all the other lovely hand blown glass from across this great country that I have picked up over the years . such a great place can’t wait to go back... will enjoy them with each beverage !

Stopped in to look around today with a friend. I had my dog with me who is very timid and all of the employees were so kind and brought her treats and water. The jewelry is fabulous and the staff is very friendly and informative. I love Four Peaks so I bought a very unique pair of earrings made from Amethyst mined there.
