Sedona Arts Center turns 65 this year.  In honor of this milestone occasion, we are centering the themes of our exhibits and events around our history.  Every exhibit this year connects to our history in some way.  

Ceramics and ceramics education has been a cornerstone of the Sedona Arts Center since it was founded, 65 years ago.  The Arts Center has educated and developed so many ceramicists over the years that we couldn’t let this year pass without celebrating ceramics contribution to the arts in Arizona as well as noteworthy Arizona artists who are mastering the medium and educating the next generation of ceramicists today. This juried exhibition will feature notable ceramicists from throughout Arizona, and is open only to Arizona artists.

On behalf of Sedona Arts Center, we would like to invite you to participate in this historical exhibit: Celebrating 65 Years in Ceramics.  The exhibit will be held in the Special Exhibitions Gallery at Sedona Arts Center from April 3-26, 2024.

The People’s Choice Award will be awarded at the end of the exhibit with a cash prize of $1,000.
