It’s a distinguished affair that takes place year after year at Scottsdale Artists’ School in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale: the Beaux Arts Gala,in which patrons, collectors and artists all come together for the school’s signature fundraising event. The three-day fundraiser culminates in an elegant evening of gourmet food, live entertainment and a chance to win an original bronze by Sandy Scott.

The featured artist for this year’s gala is prolific landscape painter Dale Terbush, who creates elegant and mysterious paintings of places that feel at once real and entirely out of a dream. Other prominent artists participating in the 2026 gala and fundraiser include Kyle Ma, Mitch Baird, Linda Glover Gooch, Aimee Erickson, Calvin Liang, Jill Carver, Derek Penix, Christine Debrosky, Amery Bohling, Mark Boedges and more.

“We love celebrating art, and this yearly fundraiser gives us the opportunity to bring together our generous donors, our community, our faculty and everyone who shares a passion for art,” says Skye Fallon, a representative for the event. “Beaux Arts provides essential funding for the school’s operating budget and makes it possible to offer scholarships to students who might not otherwise be able to study under the talented faculty who teach here.”
The online auction runs November 5 to 7, and the Black & White Gala will take place on Saturday, November 7, from 6 to 9 p.m.

“Beaux Arts gives collectors the chance to bid on stunning original artwork by the school’s premier faculty and teaching artists,” Fallon continues. “Guests can view each piece up close—it’s like walking into a gallery showcasing some of the nation’s finest artists, all under one roof.”
