    logo_svacSedona AZ (March 23, 2016) – The Sedona Visual Artists’ Coalition (SVAC) if offering volunteer opportunities to assist Local Artists participating in the Open Studios Tour Friday-Sunday, April 29, 30, and May 1, 2016.  This is an excellent opportunity for students and adults to gain the experience of talking with the artist, observing their working environments, and interacting with the public.  The Sedona Chamber of Commerce has consistently named the Open Studios Tour as one of their 10 annual Signature Events.  Volunteers will be selling raffle tickets at the event, and taking down contact information from guests who visit the studios.

    Founded in 1996, the SVAC is a community of artists in the greater Sedona area who create in 2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional art. The membership of 150 artists encompasses many media, including oils, acrylics, watercolor, fiber, wood, glass, clay, metal, film and mixed media.  The Coalition fosters an interest in the visual arts by nurturing artists and our community through education, exhibition, and exploration of the arts.  To that end, educational scholarships are offered to high school seniors who intend to pursue the arts in higher education.  Thirty nine of the Open Studios artists will be donating a piece of their artwork for the raffle.  One hundred percent of the proceeds from the raffle will go to the Scholarship Fund.  

    Volunteer applications can be obtained by contacting Sue Haan at redrockfusion@gmail.com.  The Volunteer Committee will attempt to place volunteers with their preferred art medium.  There will be a brief training session prior to the Tour.  Volunteers will be expected to work at least one of the days of the Tour from 11am-4pm.  Additional days and times are welcome.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
