For this special show, SCOPE Events has been able to bring famed bronze sculptor, Jim Budish, back to La Quinta after a five-year hiatus from art shows.

To complement the art experience, the celebration will offer patrons a variety of upscale amenities that include live music, gourmet dining from popular local restaurants, and premium top-shelf beverages.

Daily live entertainment will feature favorite local performers Scott Carter (9 a.m. to noon on the Amphitheater stage) and Michael Anthony Gagliardi (9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Ketel One Oasis Lounge). Headlining on the Amphitheater stage from 1-4 p.m. are Southern California music legends, Rideshare (Friday), The Smooth Brothers (Saturday), and The Art of Sax (Sunday).
