Artsweek Golden

JUNE 16-22, 2025

FESTIVAL DATES
JUNE 21 & 22, 9 AM – 5 PM

More information coming soon…

Join us at our Creative Campus this Friday, May 16

Join us at our Creative Campus this Friday, May 16, from 4–7 PM, and experience what makes Foothills Art Center more than a gallery—it’s a creative community with soul.

We’re opening our doors (and our studios) for a free evening of art, connection, and purpose.

Wander through artists’ spaces, sip something refreshing, and place your silent bids on one-of-a-kind stained glass-inspired pieces—all in support of preserving the light that shines through our historic windows.

No need to be a member. Just bring your curiosity, your love of art, and maybe a generous spirit—we’re aiming to raise $10,000 to help secure a vibrant future for Foothills.

Let’s make it a night to remember. See you at the Creative Campus.
