Event Description
Join Thunderbird Artists, award-winning producer of fine art and wine festivals in the Southwest, for the 6th Annual Waterfront Fine Art & Wine Festival, February 10th, 11th & 12th, 2017. Stroll the beautiful banks of Scottsdale Waterfront with your valentine and enjoy juried fine art, wine tasting, live music, food and the unique sculptures of featured artist, Nobe Babayan!
Nobe Babayan was born and raised in Armenia, and although he came from a working class family, his dedicated father made sure Nobe always had the tools he needed to express his artistic abilities. Nobe graduated Tirlamesian Art College and received his Masters from the renowned Armenian Art Academy in Yerevan, Armenia in 1983. His favorite medium is clay, “I am ceaselessly fascinated with how a simple, raw substance can turn into something unique, powerful, and completely different from its original form”. Each piece combines contemporary notion with a classical quality, designed to communicate with the viewer on many different levels ranging from quiet spirituality, to delicate sensuality and dynamic motion.
Nobe's art is highly integrated, deeply sensitive and provocative of thought in a manner seldom reached by the multitude of contemporary artists--his sculptures bear the unmistakable imprint of his originality, imagination and personal creative expression.
Joining Nobe Babayan will be renowned artists from throughout the U.S. and abroad, displaying original artwork in a variety of mediums. Patrons can saunter through fine art, while sipping on world-class wines and listening to live music. For $10, patrons will receive an engraved souvenir wine glass and six tasting tickets, providing a unique opportunity to sample an extensive collection of domestic and imported wines, as well as rum cocktails and ice cold craft beers.
The event is located just south of Nordstrom’s on the South Bridge pedestrian walkway and is handicap accessible with free parking. The hours are 10am to 5pm daily. Admission is $3.00 for adults. Mark your calendars to ensure you don’t miss the Waterfront Fine Art & Wine Festival this February!
