On March 20, 2025, the Celebration of Fine Art in Scottsdale, AZ hosted members of the NSS Arizona Ambassador Community. Co-Owner, Show Director and NSS Board Member, Susan Potje welcomed the sculptors to the exhibition of 100 renowned and emerging artists showing their work in the vast tented space from January to March. The NSS group enjoyed coffee and breakfast at the Celebration of Fine Art with fellow artists and collectors before touring the exhibits at the Celebration. Later that day,  a private tour of the Western Spirit Museum was organized with Dr Andrew P. Nelson, Chief Curator and NSS Fellow John Coleman, whose work is prominently displayed in the Museum. Participating members in all the programs included NSS President Greg Glasson, Simon Kogan, Gedion Nyanhongo, Ryan Schmidt, Dan Romero, Sundie Ruppert, Laura Lee Stay Bradshaw, Deanna Rae Montero, Tom Bollinger, and others. Sculptors engaged in robust conversations and discussions throughout the day about sculpture and business.  “It was a wonderful experience,” said Potje. “Listening to John Coleman sharing his artistic journey as well as his business acumen was very inspirational. In the future, we plan to offer a gathering at Tom Bollinger’s foundry and other networking events.”
