Artist in Residence

L’Auberge de Sedona has partnered with Goldenstein Gallery on a new Artist in Residence program.

This program has many features and will allow guests to not only view beautiful, local art, but also interact with the artists while in the natural beauty of the resort along Oak Creek.  Each guest cottage, as well as throughout property, will have artwork personally selected by Goldenstein Gallery owner Linda Goldenstein, with the intention to bring the red rocks of Sedona into Creekside cottages and the creek into Vista cottages.

Each week we will feature local and regional artists on property so guests are able to watch as they paint or sculpt works in progress.  A wide variety of mediums and styles ranging from pointillist painting to clay and wax sculpting for bronze casting will be featured. The artists will interact with L’Auberge guests discussing their pieces and answer any questions.  Recently Sherab Khandro, a pointillism artist, has worked creekside and guests have enjoyed observing as well as discussing her inspiration.

Other experiences within the Artist in Residence program include Artist’s Talks which give guests an opportunity to meet the artist, see their art and learn the inspiration and story behind the work. Guests will also have the opportunity to take private classes with respected and gifted teachers in a variety of modalities such as ceramic sculpting and wheel throwing, clay sculpting, photography or plein aire painting (a French expression for painting in the open air) and more. These classes are fun for individuals or groups and can also facilitate family and team building as they create together.
