Gold Canyon Arts Festival back for 22nd year

Posted

Come to the beautiful Superstition Mountains on Saturday, Jan. 28, 2023 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for the 22nd annual Gold Canyon Arts Festival, which takes place on the grounds of the Gold Canyon United Methodist Church at 6640 S. Kings Ranch Rd. The festival is a gift to the community; there is no admission fee and parking is free. Please, no dogs or skateboards.

An average of 4,500 people per year attend and exhibitors call it the best one-day festival in the region. The juried art show features the work of 85-plus artists in a wide variety of genres and styles. Programs will be available listing the artists, their specialties and booth locations. Wanting to also support our local artists, some of the juried artists are from ‘Artists of the Superstitions.’

There will be live musical performances throughout the day featuring local Latin, Jazz/Pop and Native American musical and dance performers.

A Food Court will offer a variety of foods and beverages which includes Native American selections, barbeque, hamburgers, hotdogs and delicious kettle corn. There is truly something for everyone.

The Gold Canyon Arts Council, a non-profit organization, brings world class concerts to the East Valley through its Canyon Sounds Performance Series. Their core mission is student arts education, whereby all of their performing artists provide tutorials and workshops at regional schools.
