Elevated: An Evening of Art, Community, and Giving at Skyline Country Club
By Theresa Poalucci
As the heat rises in Tucson, opportunities for local art events tend to dwindle. However, on Friday, April 25, art lovers will have a chance to experience Elevated, an exclusive pop-up shopping event at Skyline Country Club—a venue renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views. From 4 PM to 8 PM, guests can explore a curated selection of local artisans while supporting Sister Jose Women’s Shelter, a nonprofit dedicated to helping homeless women in Tucson.
More than just an art show, Elevated takes its name from both the club’s scenic perch and the high-quality craftsmanship of the artists participating. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the creators, learn about their artistic processes, and purchase unique, handcrafted pieces.
“We are thrilled to welcome artists to our club while supporting both the creative community and Sister Jose’s Women’s Shelter,” said Jenn Flores, Director of Membership Sales and Services at Skyline Country Club. “Sister Jose’s does incredible work for our community, and we are honored to contribute to their mission. A portion of the entrance fee and a portion of all sales from the event will go directly to the shelter.”
This is not the first time Skyline Country Club has hosted an art showcase, but the last one took place just before the pandemic. For Whitney Wilkening-Daube, a club member and jewelry designer, this event has special significance.
“I attended the first art show and had such a great time that I suggested we bring it back,” said Wilkening-Daube. “This time, I’m not just attending—I’ll be one of the artists! I’m excited to share my work and be part of this meaningful event.”
22 SAAG Arttist will be SShowing at this eveint
A Family-Friendly Evening with Art and Entertainment
Elevated is open to the entire community, offering a family-friendly atmosphere. The $15 admission includes light hors d'oeuvres from Skyline’s renowned kitchen. A no-host bar will also be available.
With Mother’s Day right around the corner, this event provides the perfect opportunity to find a thoughtful, one-of-a-kind gift while supporting local artists and a great cause.
“The timing couldn’t be better,” said Wilkening -Daube. “Guests can shop for something truly special, connect with local artists, and give back to the community—all while enjoying a fantastic evening out.”
If you go: Elevated takes place on Friday, April 25 from 4 pm to 8 pm. Skyline Country Club is located at 5200 East Saint Andrews Drive, Tucson, AZ 85718. You can reach Skyline at 520-299-1111. Admission is $15 per person (children 8 and under free). A portion of the entrance fee will also be donated to Sister Jose’s Women’s Shelter in Tucson.
