    logo_rowegallerySedona AZ (April 4, 2017) – Want bragging rights among your friends? Visit Rowe Fine Art Gallery on April 22 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. to meet a pack of wolves and wolf dogs. This rare opportunity is part of Sedona Wolf Week 2017. A suggested minimum donation is required to meet the wolves with funds going toward Apex Protection Project, a 501(c)3 dedicated to protecting wolves and wolf dogs through education and rescue. The Apex Pack are USDA-certified travel animals used for educational purposes.

    20170404_Lobo--8x10--SHIRLThe event will also include a quick sculpt from 1:30 to 3:00 p.m. of one of the wolves by Ken Rowe, a renowned wildlife sculptor and owner of Rowe Fine Art Gallery. There will also be performances by Sean “Walking Bear” Mah and Ann Vannoy as well as a silent auction featuring artwork donated by local artists including Robert Albrecht of True West Images; Shirley Eichten Albrecht of Red Rock Baskets; Martha Aaron of Sedona Mountain High Flowers; and Beth Kaminski. Rowe Gallery artists Larisa Aukon, Kim Diment, Jen Farnsworth, Lynn Heil and Liam Herbert will donate artwork to the silent auction.  The big auction item of the afternoon will be “Lobo,” a limited-edition bronze of a wolf bust sculpted by Ken Rowe. The donated sculpture will be combined with a private hike with the Apex Protection Project Ambassador Pack. Additionally, four other “Lobo” bronze sculptures will be available for purchase with a portion of the sales going toward Plan B to Save Wolves, a local 501(c)3 which co-founded Sedona Wolf Week 2017 with Apex Protection Project.

    As longtime supporters and advocates of wildlife, participation in this fundraising event was an easy decision for Ken. “We are honored to be a part of what has become the largest event in support of wolves in the nation, especially since it was ‘born’ right here in Sedona,” says Ken.

    Sedona Wolf Week offers a diverse program including a concert by iconic band America, speakers, films, a special children’s event, performers, school presentations, fundraisers, a writing contest, a wolf co-existence panel and social interactions with the Apex Protection Project Ambassador Pack. All of this will help generate awareness of the plight of this apex predator and educate the public on the science of the wolf as well as current advocacy issues.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
