5th ANNUAL “INSPIRED SOLES” ART SHOW AND AUCTION

Exhibition features more than 70 stilettos transformed into art

INSPIRED SOLES – A WELL-HEELED EXPERIENCE

The annual “Inspired Soles” auction and art show is back, and this year, attendees have even more reason to be pumped (pun intended), since two new exciting components have been added to the show- online bidding and Inspired Soles wearables!

Lauren Kleck, “A Shoe for Stevie”

Inspired Soles showcases the creative minds of local artists who use a stiletto as their blank canvas to transform into one-of-a-kind works of art. More than 70 participating artists and designers have volunteered thousands of hours in this annual event that has become an organic showcase of local soul.

Inspired Soles wearables is the answer to every fashionista’s prayers. For all the women who have swooned over stilettos exhibited at past shows, now you have an opportunity to actually wear them! A selection of artists will create a limited number of wearable designs and work personally with the buyer on recreating the design on a stiletto of her choice and size.

All Inspired Soles stilettos will be sold to the highest bidders of the online auction which begins the week prior to the event, and closes at 9:30 p.m. on First Friday, April 1. As with past years, net proceeds benefit Artlink Phoenix, a nonprofit organization dedicated to linking artists, businesses and the public to better understand, appreciate and promote a thriving arts community in central Phoenix.
