The Yuma Symposium is comfort food for hungry artists.
The presenters come from around the country to share their work; and like a potluck with great friends you know it’s going to be good. We bask in the warmth of Arizona’s winter sun while forming bonds that may last thirty years or more.
February 24th - 26th, 2011
The Yuma Symposium is a series of demonstrations, lectures and slide presentations given by both internationally recognized and emerging artists who have demonstrated unusual talent. Activities include an exhibit of work by presenters and a student show, the National Saw, File, & Solder Sprints, the annual pin auction, shopping and eating in Algodones, Mexico, and a fiesta and dance on Saturday night.
The 32nd Yuma Symposium begins on Thursday, Feb. 24, 2011 with registration, a social gathering and the traditional pin swap from 3:30 - 6:30 p.m. at Lute’s Casino, 221 S Main Street. Slides and informal introductions of the presenters will follow at 7 pm.
