Say Hello to our show sponsors! We invite you to visit our Sponsors page and support the businesses that support the arts. Our Annual Fine Art Show is made possible in part by the generosity of our local business community and the wide variety of services and products they provide.
Painting + Story: This summer, you were encouraged to create a painting, to go with one of the stories written by the "Writer's Workshop" group. To view the stories presented so far, click here. NOTE: All the stories are on one document - so set your printer to print the specific pages you wish to print. These paintings and stories will be displayed at the 2026 Fine Art Show. You do not need to "enter" these paintings - they will not be part of the competition ... unless you wish to enter. Please let us know if you are participating in this creative collaboration, and bring this painting on the Fine Art Show Drop Off Day: Friday, November 6th, 2026.
Need assistance? Board members are available 20 minutes before each meeting, at Desert Vista. No appointment needed. Or send us an email.
Dues & Membership: New and Existing Members may pay Annual dues ($15.00) online. Dues are payable in January for the calendar year. Members joining the club or otherwise paying mid-year will pay $15.00 for the balance of that year, regardless of the month paid, and $15.00 in January. (Sun City membership # required)
