BASIC's Fine Art Show & Sale is held on a weekend in March in Christmas Circle Park, Borrego Springs, surrounded by the beauty of the Anza-Borrego Desert!  Come visit us, peruse our juried fine art, all while enjoying the gorgeous scenery. 

The Circle of Art is BASIC's oldest major fundraising event. It began in 1989 and the first two Circle of Art events were held in conjunction with the Borrego Springs Grapefruit Festival.  In 1992 the first "Print of the Year" was produced and in 1993 The Circle of Art became a singular stand alone event drawing upon the beauty of the Anza Borrego Desert in the Spring. Every year in March, Borrego Springs is host to the Circle of Art at Christmas Circle Park in the heart of the village.   This fine arts show is FREE to the public and features approximately seventy artists.  All proceeds from the Circle of Art go towards BASIC's educational projects and scholarships for the residents of the Borrego Springs Community.

Organizers select about 70 artists for the show each year, exhibiting quality paintings and art works representing a variety of media including oil and watercolors, photography, sculpture, ceramics, pottery, weaving and jewelry.

In past years, artists have been selected for the featured art on a print commemorating the show.
