Cave Creek Film and Arts Festival call for entries
In addition to being heavily involved in real estate we also are active in civic organizations, one being the San Pedro River Arts Council. Cochise County is rich with professional and amateur artists. And here is an opportunity for for our resident artists to get statewide recognition.
