Walton Arts Center Is Going Full Western for the 24th Annual Art of Wine

The 24th annual Art of Wine is heading west this July, and Walton Arts Center in Fayetteville is ready for it. The frontier theme is in full effect, and the night has a lot going on.

THE DEETS

Saddle Up and Explore

You’ll work your way through pours from more than 100 vendors and bites from over 20 local restaurants. The western theme carries into the shopping, too. An Old Main Street area features Moon Ridge hats, Walton Arts Center merch, and pieces from Underwoods Fine Jewelers.

For something a little more permanent, a $50 non-refundable deposit at checkout locks in a flash tattoo appointment with an on-site artist. You’ll pay the remaining balance directly to the artist at the event.

The Reserve Room Upgrade

The Reserve Room ticket covers everything in general admission, plus premium wines and food not on the main floor. You’ll also get express entry before GA doors open and access to themed lounge spaces built around the western concept. Prefer early entry without the full upgrade? The Express Pass gets you in on its own.

Drinks That Do Good

Proceeds from Art of Wine fund Walton Arts Center’s arts education programs. The Classroom Series brings thousands of students to live performances for free each year, and after-school workshops give young people a foothold in music and theater. As a nonprofit, Walton Arts Center depends on events like this to keep those programs going.

Early Bird tickets are on sale now at waltonartscenter.org.
