About the League:

The Scottsdale League for the Arts is a 501(c)3 non-profit volunteer organization of accomplished men and women who promote awareness of the arts through social and educational opportunities.  To foster and promote awareness in the Valley, the League raises funds for arts and art educational programs with broad and diverse expectations.

Founded in 1978, the Scottsdale League for the Arts™ has primarily distributed its funds to the Scottsdale Cultural Council in support of education programs of the Scottsdale Center for the Arts and, more recently, the Scottsdale Museum for Contemporary Art.

Funds have also been distributed to the Scottsdale Arts in Education Council. Since 1992, the League has contributed more than $63,000 towards scholarships for students enrolled in culinary programs.

Starting in 2002, the League has for the first time, made funds available for nonprofit organizations through a competitive grants program. To date, the League has distributed over $2.5 million in grants.

The League's signature event, The Scottsdale Culinary Festival™, is a culinary masterpiece in itself. The famed Scottsdale Culinary Festival™ held every April has been hailed one of the premiere culinary events in the United States.
