Live Art Demonstrations at the SAAG Gallery
Come watch creativity in action! Join us at the SAAG Gallery for three days of live art demonstrations featuring 12 talented Southern Arizona artists. See how beautiful works of art come to life as the artists share their techniques, creative processes, and the inspiration behind their work. Chat with them, ask questions, and maybe discover a new art form you’d like to try yourself. The demonstrations are free, and everyone is welcome. Stop by, stay awhile, and enjoy a little creative inspiration while exploring the gallery’s collection of locally created art. Part of the 2026 Open Studio Tours.
