Beaux Arts 2026: A Black & White Gala: Celebrating the Transformative Power of Art
Scottsdale Artists' School invites art enthusiasts, collectors, patrons, and community supporters to attend Beaux Arts 2026, the School's signature annual fundraising event, taking place November 5–7, 2026. The celebration closes with a Black & White Gala on Saturday, November 7th, from 6-9 pm, at Scottsdale Artists' School in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale.
This elegant evening will honor acclaimed artist Dale Terbush as the 2026 Signature Artist and feature an exciting online art auction, live entertainment, gourmet cuisine, and a special raffle featuring an original bronze sculpture by renowned wildlife sculptor Sandy Scott.
Inspired by the timeless sophistication of black and white, this year's theme celebrates the artistic fundamentals of light and shadow, contrast and composition, the very foundations upon which great art is built.
Proceeds from the Beaux Arts event directly support Scottsdale Artists' School's educational programs, scholarships, youth outreach initiatives, and world class workshops taught by leading professional artists. Beaux Arts is more than a fundraiser. It is a celebration of creativity, community, and the transformative impact of art education. Every bid, sponsorship, and ticket purchased helps us continue our mission of teaching artistic excellence and inspiring artists of all ages.
