Art in the High Desert is a premiere art show in the Pacific Northwest, run by artists for artists.
Our show is a natural addition to a community with active art galleries, monthly art walks, and a popular collection of public art. Designed and organized by a group of art show artists and local art advocates who know shows from both sides of the booth. Careful thought has been given to media categories, jurying, site, and artist amenities. We want artists and patrons to enjoy a high quality and professional art show and sale.
Art in the High Desert takes place outdoors at Riverbend Park on the banks of the Deschutes River in the heart of beautiful Bend, Oregon. This heavily treed and scenic venue has public parking, on-site bathrooms and picnic areas, and is a few minutes walk from dining and high quality shopping opportunities in the Old Mill Shopping District, one of the most popular areas of the High Desert.
