La Quinta Art Celebration

Returns to the Civic Center Campus March 2-5

The La Quinta Art Celebration is coming up March 2-5, bringing in 200 juried, world-class artists showcasing original works at the stunning La Quinta Civic Center Campus.

Named the #1 Fine Art & Fine Craft Event in the Nation by Art Fair Sourcebook, the multi-day arts extravaganza allows attendees to engage with the artists and learn about their inspiration and techniques. What’s more, arts lovers may also choose to take home an original piece or collaborate to create a customdesigned exclusive for a favorite space in their residence or office.

Enjoy upscale amenities including the Champagne Bar, top shelf libations served at the Amphitheater Bar and Napa and Sonoma Valley wines at the Wine Experience. For the more adventurous, check out the Don Julio Margarita Island. Premium brew, Stella Artois plus IPA favorites and exquisite culinary delights are found at the Gourmet Celebration Bistro. Save some room for a stop at the Oasis

Lounge for a decadent Brandini Toffee and Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream Bar.

Featured artists for the March Celebration are Chris Dellorco, native Angeleno and UC Berkeley graduate, as poster artist with the oil painting titled “Celebration.” Self-taught, Dellorco has made a name for himself as a preeminent illustrator specializing in the film industry, children’s products and books as well as working as a top creator for Disney.

Event T-shirts will feature wild horses painted by Tom Boatright from Olympia, Washington, in an abstract, impressionistic style. Boatright was born in Palm Springs and now returns to the desert as a part-time resident and gallery owner in La Quinta.

The third featured artist, Kue King, is a first-time participant. He is an internationally renowned Filipino sculptor who transforms wire into intricately abstract sculptures. His work explores the intersection of craft, design, fine art and modernism, and dental care ending epidemics equitable access food assistance gender-affirming care harm reduction health equity hiv care DAP Health health mental health primary care racial equity recovery sexual health social services women’s health is health care
