Greetings!  
 

We are pleased to welcome back the fabulous exhibition, Night Visions, to the Coconino Center for the Arts. The show features artwork celebrating the beauty of the night sky.  Participating artists come from all over the United States; many locals are featured, too.  We received more entries for this juried show that we have for any other juried show in the last five years!  We're really excited for you to see it. 

 

The exhibition is part of one of Flagstaff's event treasures: The Festival of Science, which features countless science education events throughout the community.  Night Visions opens September 24 with a Reception, which is followed by the opening concert of the Grand Canyon Guitar Society concert series (Berta Rojas).  Please join us!  

 

Cheers,

Colin Hay While Colin Hay's voice and visage are familiar to millions as front-man, songwriter, and vocalist of pop sensation Men at Work, the past ten years have found him re-introducing himself to a new generation of fans. The frequent use of his music in TV and film has proven the timeless appeal of his songs: quizzical, curious, cynical yet open-hearted.
