BESPOKE ART & DESIGN
Classic cars and hot rods made for an exciting show at Westgate Entertainment District in Glendale, Arizona. This was my first visit to this venue and my first car show experience on the west side of the Phoenix Valley.
I’ve been looking forward to catching the East Valley Cruisers Car Club‘s weekly car show. Having visited a couple of local car shows recently, I get asked a lot if I’ve checked out the gathering in East Mesa, Arizona. A collection of vehicles from club members around the East Valley gathers on Friday afternoons from October to May from 2 PM to 6 PM at the old Bashas location at Signal Butte and Main Street in Mesa. Last week marked their first event of the season.
Last weekend, I attended a fantastic car show in Apache Junction (my second for the season) at the VFW Post 9399. I shared with the local car crowd that I was taking pictures for a blog post I shared earlier this week. During my few hours at the VFW’s 1st Annual Car & Motorcycle Show, I was asked several times if I was planning to visit the upcoming 1st Annual Superstition Classics in Gold Canyon.
Clear skies and warm weather prevailed as the VFW Post 9399 hosted its 1st Annual Car and Motorcycle Show this past Saturday, and the quantity and quality of eye candy was impressive. Arizona’s beautiful southwest has no shortage of classic and contemporary cars to complement its stunning mountains and winding highways, making it a perfect backdrop for such an event.
With Summer nearly over and Autumn upon us, it’s car show season in the Phoenix Valley. To some degree, I may be exaggerating a bit regarding the season. Technically, the Autumnal Equinox was about a week ago, on September 22, but Arizona is still experiencing Summer heat, with today’s temps hitting 112 degrees. The Mesa Market Place provided an excellent venue to escape the heat with its covered public zones and soothing water misters, while enjoying the cars and chatting with fellow enthusiasts.

This year’s Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association Show was the biggest, baddest, best car show I’ve ever attended.
It was a fantastic morning for this week’s Celebrity Cars & Coffee. The fresh air, clear skies, and perfect temperature inspired me to include the car show in my sunrise walk, so I got there earlier than my previous visits and hung out for about an hour so, taking in all the incredible cars of every variety.
Despite the grey skies and occasional sprinkles, there was a nice turnout of cars and enthusiasts for this week’s Celebrity Cars & Coffee.
This is where I go when I want to get inspired and connect with the local car community. The Las Vegas Cars & Coffee is a booming gathering of enthusiastic car folks, easy to get to, and boasts hundreds of stunning cars weekly, including some amazing Corvettes.
This epic exhibition marks the 14th Museum to exhibit the LUSTER fine art collection in an ongoing traveling show that began in 2018.
Two new art-themed exhibits are opening at the Museum, and we want their Members to be the first to see them!
