Explore Art: Phoenix

“Almost a native” goes the saying if you have lived in Phoenix for a good chunk of your life. That’s me — a desert rat — and my experiences as an arts and entertainment writer and editor have led me to believe that our local visual arts scene is highly underrated. This independent website might not remedy that, but it will introduce readers to museums and galleries and art in public spaces — all around our beautiful desert Valley.

A little bit about my credentials:

• Freelance writer and editor covering visual arts, travel, lifestyle and women’s health.

• Co-author of the first edition of The Insiders’ Guide to Phoenix.

• Former features reporter and copy editor for The Arizona Republic.

• Former arts and entertainment editor of the late, great Scottsdale Progress.

Please feel free to contact me with story suggestions and photo opportunities.
