50th
Since 1973, The Edge of Cedars Art Exhibit has been lovingly hosted and supported by the Epsilon Sigma Alpha sorority, a world-wide organization that promotes service and leadership. The show took a hiatus due to COVID. Beginning in 2023, the event has a new home at the Grand Mesa Arts and Events Center, where we will celebrate the 49th Annual Edge of Cedars Art Exhibit. Please join us in honoring the history while bringing new life to this wonderful event!
