We have a vision for Arizona!
Each year in Arizona, a mass collaboration will take place involving over a hundred venues hosting hundreds of artists, and drawing tens of thousands of visitors from around the world.
For 19 days each year, an Arizona city will take the world stage as contemporary art of every medium fills the ArtWins district.
It all starts with a huge grand prize, half determined by a public vote and the other determined by a panel of art experts. Participating artists have the potential of winning one of the world’s largest prizes for contemporary art.
The technology used to facilitate the public vote also serves as an engagement tool for the tens of thousands of ArtWins visitors, providing maps, venue information, parking, public transit, dining, events, accommodations and social media connections that will enable an unprecedented visitor experience.
ArtWins is an invitation to all. An invitation to do something extraordinary. To collaborate on a mass-scale in celebration of creativity and community.
This is your opportunity to get involved from the very beginning, and be part of a small group of ArtWins Founders in creating a legacy event for our entire region. Please contact me for information about how you can become a Founder and be a part of creating this extraordinary vision for the Valley of the Sun.
