Artlink, a prominent organization dedicated to supporting and promoting the arts in Arizona, is set to host its 12th Annual Art d’Core Gala: PRISM on March 1, 2025, at the iconic Biltmore Fashion Park in Phoenix. This highly anticipated event, often hailed as “The Arts and Culture Party of the Year,” serves as the grand kickoff to Art Detour, a month-long celebration of the state’s vibrant arts and culture scene.
The PRISM-themed gala promises to transform both indoor and outdoor spaces into a dynamic canvas that celebrates Arizona’s diverse and innovative artistry. Attendees are encouraged to dress creatively, immersing themselves in an evening filled with exceptional visual displays, live performances, and culinary delights crafted by renowned local chefs. The event also offers an opportunity to mingle with artists, donors, advocates, and community leaders who are instrumental in advancing Arizona’s arts community and economy.
A highlight of the evening will be the unveiling of the PRISM exhibition, a public art showcase featuring works from esteemed artists such as Kenaim Al-Shatti, Laura Spalding Best, Jan Talmadge Davids, Ruby Farias, and many others. The exhibition will also debut the 2025 recipient of The Artist Forward Fund, Valerie Navarette. Open to the public through March 31, the exhibition offers art enthusiasts the chance to view and purchase artworks, further supporting the local arts community.
In addition to celebrating artistic talent, the gala will honor three distinguished leaders for their significant contributions to Arizona’s creative community: Adam Goodman, President and CEO of Goodmans Interior Structures; Linda Herold, a dedicated arts supporter and philanthropist; and Devney Majerle, President and CEO of Downtown Phoenix Inc. Their unwavering commitment has been pivotal in fostering the growth and sustainability of the arts in the region.
Tickets for the Art d’Core Gala start at $150, with VIP options available that include exclusive previews and additional perks. Proceeds from the event will benefit Artlink’s initiatives aimed at amplifying and sustaining Arizona’s creative community.
