Patrons, Pedestrians and Producers Welcome

The art scene in metro Phoenix is more diverse and eclectic than most anticipate before exploring here.

The typical expectation is for cowboy art and not much else. We have our share of cowboy themes and some galleries do specialize in Native American or wild west texture. Others, however, cover the range of tastes from high-caliber, internationally renowned artists to indie, emerging visionaries and crafters.

two dozen distinct towns and a multitude of neighborhoods

Metro PHX is an eclectic mosaic of towns and neighborhoods covering a breathtaking expanse of the Sonoran Desert. Within the region, we have the largest municipal park in the world; by itself, the park covers acreage greater than the city of Manhattan. And that is just a portion of Metropolitan PHX.

Getting the lay of the land and choosing where to live can be exciting and challenging for newcomers. A resident may tell you she lives in Arcadia, calls herself a Phoenician and graduated from a Scottsdale school. How do you sort out Phoenix Neighborhoods?
