2026 Grand Canyon Celebration of Art Exhibition and Sale in historic Kolb Studio on the South Rim.

Celebration of Art (CoA) brings artists together, from throughout the region, to paint "en plein air" (outside on location) the world-class scenery the canyon offers. The artists are tasked with capturing the ever-changing colors and light as the sun moves across the intricate layers of the canyon.

Paintings produced during this special event are shared with the public during a six-month sale and exhibition online and at Historic Kolb Studio. 

All available artwork is available for sale online at shop.grandcanyon.org, with proceeds going towards a fund to establish a dedicated art venue at the South Rim. 

Kolb Studio is open to the public daily from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
