Follow Me to Hidden in the Hills!

Follow Me to Hidden in the Hills!

Every year, during the last two weekends in November, the Hidden in the Hills Artist Studio Tour brings together art lovers and artists throughout the Desert Foothills. It’s a wonderful chance to explore excellent artwork in a casual, hosted studio setting. More than 160 artists will be showing their work at 41 studio locations across Cave Creek, Carefree, and North Scottsdale.
I’m pleased to share that I will once again be exhibiting as a guest artist at Desert Rat Forge, alongside four other talented artists. Our host, Paul Diefenderfer, is a metal artist, and his studio is always a great stop on the tour.

2025 Hidden in the Hills Artist Studio Tour:
November 21, 22 & 23 and 28, 29, 30 ~ 2025
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 10 AM-5 PM

Desert Rat Forge
7645 E Highland Road
Cave Creek, AZ 85331
602.509.1534

At Paul’s studio, you’ll find his metal work along with artists working in watercolor, bronze, oil, glass, ceramics, and mixed media - and of course, my jewelry, some of which is pictured above.

This is the Hidden in the Hills directory, where you can find all participating artists and examples of their work. Each year they feature the work of an artist on the cover, and this year it highlights Elizabeth Butler Page. She is a very talented painter, and you can read about her below the directory.


Inside, artists are listed alphabetically, along with the studios they are participating in and a map to help you plan your route. There’s even a dining guide with nearby places for food and drink if you need to take a break!

My featured piece in the directory is this beautiful pendant highlighting a Gray Tahitian Pearl suspended within a reticulated sterling silver circle Pair it with #751 matching earrings.

Hidden in the Hills Artist Studio Tour is presented by the Sonoran Arts League. 
“The Sonoran Arts League began in 1975 as an informal gathering of local artists who put on art shows under the Tamarisk groves in Cave Creek, Arizona. Today, we are a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit arts organization that offers high-quality art-making and educational programs for a broad spectrum of constituents.”


This is their 50th Anniversary, and I am so proud to be a juried member of this organization.
