Art comes to life in a tranquil desert community with Art in Kayenta
By Jan Broberg
Gorgeous fall weather, majestic red rock and mountain views, lively music, food vendors, Xetava Gardens Cafe, stellar art galleries and studios, a world-class Center for the Arts … this is Art in Kayenta.
Join us October 12–14 at Kayenta Art Village in Ivins for three fun-filled days of art and entertainment. Over 40 juried local, regional, and national artists along with thousands of guests will come together to be a part of the art! Art in Kayenta will offer one-of-a-kind creations from artisans specializing in sculpture, painting, jewelry, ceramics, wood, and more. A festive beer and wine garden will provide a relaxing respite for festival attendees. Art in Kayenta will take place from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 12 and 13 and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 14.
Now in its 18th year, Art in Kayenta is sponsored by the Kayenta Arts Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting diverse arts in the region. This year’s festival celebrates the newly-opened Center for the Arts at Kayenta, home to the Lorraine Boccardo Theatre — a 200-seat black box and concert stage — and artful spaces to accommodate meetings, receptions, seminars, and rehearsals. Located at 881 Coyote Gulch Ct. in Ivins, The Center for the Arts at Kayenta hosts a broad range of performing arts, dramatic plays, lectures, films, concerts, and educational opportunities for the southern Utah area. The Kayenta Arts Foundation will also host a silent auction where patrons can bid on the art of many professional Kayenta community artists as well as visiting artists, who will donate the proceeds toward supporting the Center for the Arts at Kayenta.
