Art Galleries

Internationally known as a Mecca for art collectors, Scottsdale is home to more than 125 galleries. Here you will find everything from contemporary to classic, bronze to oil and traditional Native American art and jewelry.

"America's Original ArtWalk" - is a 30-year tradition and a Scottsdale Signature Event. Unique in their scope and longevity, ArtWalks are held every Thursday evening, year-round (except Thanksgiving) from 7-9 pm. Each week, Scottsdale Gallery Association members host special exhibits - many with artist receptions - and join together for an informal come-and-go "open house" throughout the District.

Duley-Jones Gallery will celebrate its sixth anniversary with an exhibit of new work by gallery artists, June 1 through August 31, 2007. A book signing by Sylvia Long and an artists' reception will be held on Thursday, July 5th during the Summer Spectacular ArtWalk from 7 to 9 pm.
