The Scottsdale Arts District and many of its galleries are now back open for business with additional safety measures in place, including scheduling private appointments.
“We are thrilled to welcome back our art community and would like to offer patrons peace of mind by ensuring them that we have done everything we can as an association to help them feel safe and comfortable returning to our Arts District. We are grateful for all the loyal art aficionados from the valley — and around the country — that continue to support our local galleries and artists.”

The Scottsdale Gallery Association hosts the nation’s oldest ArtWalk — 45 years and counting! — every Thursday evening from 7 to 10 p.m., with eight specially themed Gold Palette ArtWalks occurring throughout the year that offer guests refreshments, entertainment, specialty exhibits and more aligned with each theme. The SGA ArtWalk brings together the finest art in Scottsdale including 28 galleries and two museums — Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art and Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West.
The Thursday night art walk series is currently on hold in light of COVID-19 but will resume this summer on a date to be determined.
