Discover artisan creations and gift items at Winter Art on the Boardwalk by Sundance Creek Promotions.

Located at the Arizona Boardwalk, the outdoor festival will celebrate winter Arizona-style in the heart of Scottsdale’s Talking Stick entertainment district from 10 a.m.–5 p.m., Friday, Jan. 20, to Sunday, Jan. 22, with free admission and parking, a press release stated.

Art on the Boardwalk will feature talented local and regional artisans exhibiting fine arts, crafts, home décor and specialty gift items within the intimate setting of the Arizona Boardwalk’s center courtyard.

Guests will enjoy live musical entertainment on Saturday and Sunday from 12-3 p.m. by The Chacons, a brother and sister duo playing pop and classic rock songs with a soulful, jazz vibe.

Children may create their own work of art and enter the coloring contest, the release added.

Meet princess characters from Timeless Enchantments Arizona, an inclusive and diverse nonprofit charity group that volunteers to bring magic and smiles throughout Arizona.

Princess characters will take pictures with guests from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 21.

The first 50 adults will receive a free tote bag on Friday morning at the show opening when they come to the Sundance Creek Promotions booth.

Budding artists from Salt River Elementary will display their masterpiece interpretations of Pablo Picasso in the student art exhibit. Attendees can vote on their favorite to help the top three student artists win a prize.

“Art on the Boardwalk connects artists and art enthusiasts with a dazzling array of art and specialty gift items. The one-of-a-kind items by masterful local artists and vendors will fill that empty spot in your home and impress anyone on your shopping list,” said Dina Giovale, Sundance Creek Promotions event producer, in the release.

“Make sure to ask about customizations and special commission items to get the perfect size, shape or color for yourself or your home.”

As Scottsdale’s premier entertainment destination, the Arizona Boardwalk features several of the Valley’s most popular attractions, including OdySea Aquarium, Butterfly Wonderland and Pangaea: Land of Dinosaurs, in addition to multiple dining, shopping and amusement venues.

Attendees can start their creative adventure shopping for one-of-a-kind creations at the Art on the Boardwalk festival.

Then, visitors can learn about marine life, butterflies or interesting dinosaur facts. When guests get hungry, Johnny Rockets, Reef Snackbar or Pangaea Grill are ready to serve.

Finish the afternoon listening to live entertainment, enter a kids coloring contest and shop more at the art festival. Guests may want to come back a second day, the release suggested.

Art on the Boardwalk attendees will appreciate Sundance Creek’s intimate festival shopping atmosphere to enjoy live music, beautiful fall weather and scenic desert mountain views.
