The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “The Musicians” showing Aug. 15-21 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.

A charming, music-centered comedy, “The Musicians” features a talented cast of real musicians that is sure to delight and entertain.

Astrid Thompson finally succeeds in fulfilling her father's dream of bringing together four Stradivarius instruments for a unique concert eagerly awaited by music lovers the world over. But Lise, George, Peter and Apolline — the four virtuosos recruited for the occasion — are unable to play together.

Rehearsal after rehearsal leads to one ego crisis after another. With no solution in sight, Astrid decides to seek out the only person who, in her eyes, can still save the event: Charlie Beaumont, the composer of the score.

The Blacksmiths are back and they’ve brought along Oscar and Orion, the Harbinger, the Pitchfork Turtle, and the Sonoran Rustback. They have brought all these and more to The Arboretum at Flagstaff as part of the 14th annual Botanical Blacksmiths exhibit. The Botanical Blacksmiths exhibit began in 2012 as a collaborative effort between The Arboretum and the Arizona Artist Blacksmith Association (AABA) to showcase ironwork created for the garden, to bring visual interest to the gardens early in the season, and to show visitors how art can bring year round beauty to their own gardens. The exhibit quickly became a visitor favorite and this year’s exhibit is no exception. In addition to showcasing a changing exhibit of 26 pieces of art in the garden, there is also an indoor component 20 nature themed pieces displayed in the Visitor Center Gallery. The Botanical Blacksmiths exhibit showcases work by 8 professional blacksmiths and metal artists from the Southwest. Most of the work in the exhibit is for sale and 30% of the proceeds benefit The Arboretum at Flagstaff. The Botanical Blacksmiths exhibit is open now and will be at The Arboretum until September 20 so come on out and enjoy the beauty of the gardens and the garden art.
