Scottsdale League for the Arts (SLA) is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven organization based in Scottsdale, Arizona, that supports artists, arts programs, and arts education through fundraising and special events. By directing net proceeds from its activities to a diverse grants program, SLA provides ongoing financial assistance to a range of arts-focused entities in Maricopa County, contributing to capital improvements, education, and programming within the regional arts community. The group is guided by a mission to sustain arts vitality in the area, leveraging community engagement to fund and expand opportunities for artists and institutions alike.
Based in the Phoenix metro area, SLA operates within the events services landscape and relies on volunteer leadership to coordinate activities such as the Scottsdale Culinary Festival, which has historically been a core initiative though its delivery has evolved in response to disruptions like the Covid-19 pandemic. The organization has a long-standing history dating to 1978, with formalized grants processes introduced in 2002 to broaden its impact. While the league maintains regular social gatherings as part of its operations, its primary function remains channeling net fundraising into grant support for arts entities across the region.
