Making a special visit to our Scottsdale studio is Trudy Hayes, the executive director of the Scottsdale Artists' School. This year the school, which brings in artists from all around the country to instruct art students of all skill levels, will be celebrating its 40th anniversary. On November 9-11, 2023, the SAA will be presenting its annual Beaux Arts event that benefits the non-profit school and its programs. Online bidders can view and place bids on art starting November 9, and a party will be held November 11, from 6-9 p.m. to close out the sale. American Art Collector magazine is a proud media sponsor of the event.
