Scottsdale Gallery Association announces first 2023 Gold Palette ArtWalk

Posted

It’s sure to be a happy New Year with the return of one of the Scottsdale Gallery Association’s most popular and well-attended Gold Palette ArtWalks — Demonstrate.

This special Gold Palette ArtWalk takes place Thursday, Jan. 12, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. throughout the streets of the Scottsdale Arts District — along Main St. from Scottsdale Road to Goldwater Blvd. and north of Indian School Road on Marshall Way to 5th Ave.

The event offers guests an opportunity to view live artist demonstrations at participating galleries— all for a good cause, a press release explained. Serving as a fundraiser for the 100 Club of Arizona and Tunnels To Towers, The Demonstrate Gold Palette Artwalk will also feature live traditional bagpipe performances.

“It’s honor for us to present this popular event once again and we’re proud it remains one of our most popular events throughout the year,” said Scottsdale Gallery Association President French Thompson in the release. “This serves as proof of the amazing and supportive community we have here in Scottsdale, not only for our vibrant arts scene but for our firefighters and police officers who risk their lives daily to protect ours.”

The following galleries will be highlighting their own distinct events during the Gold Palette Artwalk:

Altamira Fine Art, 7038 E. Main St.

  • Artist Geoffrey Gersten will be on site for an artist’s reception during the ArtWalk.
