The inaugural Art at Anthem is coming to North Phoenix.

From Friday, Dec. 15 through Sunday, Dec. 17, the event will feature more than 60 fine artists and vendors, an eclectic lineup of live music and activities, food vendors and more.

Presented by Marlo Johnson Promotions – the group behind the popular Oak Creek Arts & Crafts Shows in Sedona – Art at Anthem will take place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at Outlets North Phoenix (formerly known as Outlets at Anthem), located at 4250 W. Anthem Way.

The event will feature a diverse assortment of art and handcrafted items on display and available for purchase, including paintings, photography, pottery, jewelry and Native American pieces. Throughout the weekend, musician Michael Peters will be performing.

From noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, the show will feature a “Free to Be Me” drum circle in which children will be invited to participate. Professionally facilitated by drummer/percussionist Sabina Sandoval, Free to Be Me is a nonprofit, all-volunteer charity group dedicated to helping kids aged K-12 (particularly those who are at risk), elders, prison inmates and people with mental disabilities. The group fulfills its mission by providing loving, educational, rhythmic drumming events that encourage crowd participation.

From noon to 2 p.m. Sunday, Native hoop dancer and singer Moontee Sinquah will perform, bringing Hopi culture and traditions to life through energetic music and dance. He is a four-time world hoop dance champion, as well as a traditional singer, flutist and artist.

More than 60 artists and vendors will sell their wares at Art at Anthem in December.
