Jerome AZ (December 24, 2019) – Let the party continue the Saturday after New Year’s Eve with the January 4th Jerome Art Walk. This free event has become a Verde Valley favorite. Take the convenient shuttle throughout the town to visit the many galleries and studios from the Old Jerome High School up the hill to Nellie Bly Kaleidoscopes, The Lincoln Gallery and Made in Jerome Pottery and everything in-between. The post-holiday weekend is the perfect time to enjoy late night dinner hours at Jerome’s great restaurants, enjoy some live music and maybe spend the night. This first weekend that begins the New Year promises to be a lively and festive time in the mile high town.

Cody DeLong is completing a new body of work for his upcoming show in Tubac AZ called ‘Shock of the New West’ opening on January 10th at the Tubac Center for the Arts. Stop in and see this new body of work before it goes to the show. Much of the new work deals with the prickly pear and saguaro cactus, but painted in a bold and modern way, incorporating some abstraction and rich textural effects. “More than anything with this new work, I am exploring color and texture, painting with paint”.
