The creatives in our midst have been busier than ever, making work they re sharing in both live and virtual formats. Here s a sampling of what s happening around metro Phoenix this week, including several events that won t cost you a thing.
Artists Breakfast Club
Some of Arizona s most accomplished artists have gathered during the past two decades as part of an informal group called the Artists Breakfast Club, which meets monthly to foster community, cooperation, and mutual support. Now works by dozens of these artists, including Christine Cassano and Joel Coplin, are part of a group exhibition inside an exhibition space at Scottsdale s Civic Center Library. The library is open select days this week, including Monday, December 14, when the hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. While you re in the area, leave time to enjoy public art around Old Town or nearby galleries and museums.
