Our Story,

​In late Summer of 2012, at the inspiration of Cynthia Portrey, a group of five talented individuals met at "Seven Cups" to form an "artist" network.  We brainstormed on the possibility of an event that would bring artists together, educate the community on the value of art, and how art plays a major role in bringing revenue into the City of Maricopa.  Hence, the "Maricopa Artisans' committee was formed and "Art on the Veranda," was our first introduction to the community of Maricopa.
