Scottsdale ArtWalk Goes Green


Part celebration, part art exhibit, part music and beer festival, and all environmentally friendly, Green Street Scottsdale is going to be a unique night on the town! It will be held in the downtown Arts District and the adjacent SouthBridge/Waterfront neighborhood on Thurs., Nov. 12 from 7-10pm. The event was conceived in honor of the 2009 Greenbuild International Conference & Expo being held that same week.

Activities in the Arts District will include the Green Street ArtWalk, with artist demonstrations and live music staged throughout the area. The lineup includes Grant Ferguson Fusion, Watershade and many others. There also will be a live jazz concert produced by the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts that will give you a peak at the city's first Latin Jazz Festival debuting Nov. 13-15, 2009.

Exhibits will include the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, the largest urban preserve in the nation; talks by local architects; and a photo gallery of all LEED-certified projects in the city.

Food and drinks will be flowing all evening with select restaurants offering special promotions to event attendees at SouthBridge and the Scottsdale Waterfront. Plus, taste delicious dishes served up by La Vida Locavore and an organic beer garden from DRAFT Magazine previewing The Big Pour event, which is coming Nov. 13-15 to downtown Scottsdale.
