To ensure that both novice and seasoned art enthusiasts feel welcome, the event has enlisted the expertise of Michael Plummer, the fair’s development director, who has a remarkable background as a former chief operating officer at Christie’s. In addition to exhibiting amazing art, attendees can look forward to educational presentations and lectures that focus on the art purchasing process, making art accessible to everyone.
As part of its commitment to inclusivity in the art world, the fair will shine a light on contemporary Indigenous artists and their contributions to the artistic landscape.

Not only will visitors indulge in art from different cultures, but they can also take part in special off-site events coordinated with local cultural institutions like the Phoenix Art Museum and the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art.
One highly anticipated exhibition during the fair is “Desert Modernism,” which will showcase the remarkable works of Phoenix artists from Native, Anglo, and Latino backgrounds from 1930 to 1980. This exhibit is a fantastic opportunity for visitors to explore the rich tapestry of art born in this vibrant region, truly making the fair a celebration of local talent and heritage.
Planning for this fabulous fair began as early as 2024, showcasing a dedicated investment in the local art scene. Exhibitors will be charged below-market booth fees to promote broader participation, particularly in the wake of the pandemic’s impact on the market. This effort highlights a commitment to revitalizing the arts industry and making it accessible for all creators.
