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.

--Winner of the Arizona Tourism Award!-- The Copper Art Museum is one of the most interesting in the USA, purposely located in the former copper town of Clarkdale - a USA City Beautiful Movement town founded in 1912. Clarkdale was built by Senator W. A. Clark "America's Copper King." The collection on display is massive with over 5000 artifacts and hundreds dating to the 1500-1800's, Galleries; Special Historical Information, Military Art, Art and Architecture, Kitchen Collection, Drinking Collection and Winery and Distillery Collection. You will be amazed by this museum!
An education around every corner. This museum is immaculately maintained and has wonderful self guided signs throughout. The feeling is cool, quiet and peaceful. They have worked hard to create this space. Plan on spending a couple of hours if you want to stroll through....longer if you want to read every sign. Every question you might have about copper and this museum is answered somewhere within these walls. Loved it! There's few places to eat while in Clarkdale. However we took a stroll around this cute little town. We went back to historic Cottonwood for lunch. There's a lot of places to stop there.

Chateau Tumbleweed is a collaboration of four friends – two husband-and-wife teams – who, after working more than 30 combined years for other Arizona wineries, recently left their “day jobs” to focus on their own project. We have a great friendship, a penchant for absurdity and complementary skills in vineyard management, winemaking, sales and administration. We crafted our first wine – only three barrels – in 2011. After three vintages of making our wine at the Four-Eight Wineworks Winemaker’s Cooperative in Camp Verde (2012-2014), we took the plunge, purchased the building we’d been eying for the previous year and converted it into one of Clarkdale’s first commercial wineries and tasting rooms.
I saw CT online with the Verde Valley tour and it said worth a stop, so we did Our host LOU which we want to adopt, was the best. Let us do a VIP switch around on the tasting and even went back and brought out some from the back room... Was a fun time and great atmosphere. If u r in the area, please stop and enjoy. And yes, we purchased some reds! Our covid safe tasting kinda sucked, but it was what it was. At least the wine was good DaveB

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 !

Vino Zona is a cozy space dedicated to relaxing and enjoying amazing Arizona wine. Arizona is home to the perfect climate. We hand pick the very best dry and sweet wines Arizona has to offer! Our view of Sedona and the Verde Valley make this an intimate and friendly place to try Arizona wine! We look forward to sharing great AZ wine with you!
My husband and I stopped in to Vino Zona while staying in Jerome. We REALLY enjoyed our hostess as she tailored our tastings to our taste. She also explained each wine she was pouring and was very knowledgeable about the grapes used. The bottles were a little more expensive than we had anticipated but we did think it was nice that the winemaker had signed them.

This former home of a mining baron became a state park and a museum in 1965.
The Douglas Mansion is the main feature of the Jerome State Historic Park. This is well worth the stop. It is a self-guided tour of the mansion and there is a 30-minute film about the history of Jerome, AZ. The views are also spectacular looking north towards Sedona. Unlike the rest of Jerome, parking here is easy.

A Sedona landmark since the 1970's, Tlaquepaque treats visitors and local residents to an exceptional collection of galleries, shops and dining establishments. Named after the picturesque Guadalajara, Tlaquepaque construction began in 1971 with the creation of the wall along the highway. Giant sycamores and stately cottonwoods dapple the light in the courtyards, encouraging the visitors to meander from one courtyard to the next. While meandering stop by and view our Chapel on property - and perhaps you might get a glimpse of a wedding and reception. Tlaquepaque hosts several community events throughout the year. Tlaquepaque is a place that visitors return to again and again - to look and wander, to sample and buy, to eat, drink and refresh body and soul. Visit us soon and discover the magic yourself!
First of all, it is pronounced T-La-Keh-Pah-Keh, which means "best of everything." Which is very appropriate. Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village is an enduring outdoor market featuring art galleries, craft shops, cobblestone paths and decorative arches. Located at 336 State Route l79 in Sedona, Arizona, on the banks of Oak Creek, it has been a Sedona landmark since the 1970s. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, it features over 50 specialty shops and art galleries and five restaurants. It is fashioned after a traditional Mexican village with vine covered stucco walls, wrought iron, stonework, patterned tiles, patios, courtyards, fountains, overhanging balconies, cobblestone walkways and arched entryways, even a chapel, designed as a place of serenity for meditation and contemplation. You've never seen a shopping mall like it. Among the most popular destinations are the chapel, the Rowe Fine Art Gallery, with a magnificent sycamore tree twisting skyward through the roof, and the El Rincon Restaurante Mexicano, a Sedona icon for over three decades. Even if you never learn how to pronounce the name properly, you won't forget your shopping experience at Tlaquepaque.

Housed in the historic old Hotel Jerome, this impressive artists' cooperative showcases the works of more than 30 local artists from the Verde Valley area.
This is an excellent shop with many local artists. From clothing to jewelry and pottery to gifts and plenty more. The windows in the back of the store offer wonderful views of Cottonwood and Sedona.
