Saturday & Sunday, November 1 & 2, 2025 | 10 am – 4 pm

The Shemer Art Center is pleased to announce the dates of its 2025 Shemer Arizona Arts Festival, held every year just in time to kick-off holiday shopping!

This two-day festival, scheduled for Saturday & Sunday, November 1 & 2, 2025, will once again feature works of art created in a variety of mediums by over 40 Arizona artists! Each day, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. this event will also feature art demonstrations, Arizona authors, an interactive $5 Art Zone, live music, food & beverage vendors, and a silent auction! Additional activities planned include the third year of the Shemer’s signature Sidewalk Chalk Festival.

Initially established in 1988 as Sunday @ Shemer, this long-time event is unique in that it showcases only Arizona artists. Each year it serves as one of four fundraising events held to support the programming and exhibitions held at the non-profit Shemer Art Center. In addition to welcoming new visitors, this event demonstrates the Shemer’s mission and dedication to showcasing and supporting Arizona artists, which it has been doing since 1984!

Each year the Shemer Art Center recognizes ONE Arizona artist who has achieved great success in his or her career and made an impact within the state.

In 2025 we will celebrate the 10th anniversary of this event with the announcement of a special honoree, for which we will once again plan an amazing exhibition and cocktail reception with them starting at 5:30 p.m. at the Shemer Art Center, followed by a dinner and program starting at 7 p.m. 

Last year’s honoree was Arizona artist and foundry owner Tom Bollinger.  Previous honorees include Ed Mell, Mayme Kratz, Mark Klett, Beth Ames Swartz, Bill Nebeker, Merrill Mahaffey, Jim Waid & Angela Tassoni.
