Verde Santa Fe Artists’ Studio Tour

Verde Santa Fe Artists’ Studio Tour

Verde Santa Fe Artists’ Studio Tour: Art lovers, mark your calendars! Twelve creatives (including yours truly) who call the Verde Santa Fe community home are opening their studio doors for a free, self‑guided tour on Saturday and Sunday, May 17–18, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. Patterned after the acclaimed Sedona Visual Artists’ Coalition tour, this two‑day event lets you wander at your own pace, step into working studios, and collect original Southwest artwork straight from the source.

Expect an eclectic mix of sculpture, photography, gourd art, basketry, sketches, jewelry, and—of course—vivid acrylic paintings. I’ll be showcasing my newest fluorescent‑infused desert landscapes (hidden hearts included) and would love to chat about technique, inspiration, and favorite hiking trails while you browse.

Getting there
• Pick up a printed map at any of the three entrances to Verde Santa Fe (Tissaw Rd., Verde Santa Fe Pkwy., and Amante Dr.) during the tour.
• Prefer to plan ahead? Starting May 11, maps will also be available at the Verde Santa Fe clubhouse, 635 Verde Santa Fe Pkwy., next to Agave Highlands Golf Course.

Bring friends, enjoy the spring desert light, and discover artwork that will make your walls glow. Questions? Send me a quick note through the contact page—I’m happy to help you map out a perfect art‑filled weekend.

See you on the tour!
