Celebrating Over Two Decades Of Art In Kayenta
Ivins, UT – The Kayenta Arts Foundation is pleased to announce the 22nd annual Art in Kayenta Festival, Friday, October 7th through Sunday, October 9th, 2022.
Each fall, thousands of art enthusiasts and families have been making their way to Kayenta Art Village for the annual three-day FREE art festival in Ivins. Not only do festival goers enjoy spectacular art, but they are also treated to stunning desert vistas, culinary delights from festival vendors, a beer and wine garden, live music, and Kayenta’s own delightful Xetava Gardens Café.
Guests will have the opportunity to visit a collection of 40 juried, regional and national artists who specialize in sculpture, painting, jewelry, ceramics, wood, metal, and other media. “The quality of art and extent of creative expression at the Festival is extraordinary. Combined with the Art Village setting and backdrop of Ivins red mountain, it is truly a special experience,” states Foundation Chair Rob Goodman.
The Art in Kayenta festival hosts a silent auction featuring the original work from the attending artists and offerings from local businesses. Festival guests will have the exclusive opportunity to bid on selected art pieces. The auction is hosted by the nonprofit Kayenta Arts Foundation, with proceeds benefiting the Center For the Arts at Kayenta (CFAK).
During the Art in Kayenta Festival, CFAK is also presenting a special Living Art History Chautauqua event on October 7 and 8 at 7:30 PM. This production features “Bobby Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev debating the 1692 missile crisis between the two Super Powerhouses. There will also be a special social hour to meet the artists, either before or after the event.
