WHERE CREATIVITY MEETS THE DESERT
Three days of art, wine, and desert magic
For one weekend each fall, The Oasis at Death Valley becomes a gathering place for artists, winemakers, and anyone who loves good company under a desert sky. Come experience a FREE event featuring talented art vendors and live musicians, wander among original works from local and regional artists, sip curated pours from acclaimed wineries, and taste your way through different flavors.
As the sun drops behind the mountains, the palms light up and live music drifts across the gardens. This is the desert at its most alive, refined, and unforgettable, and a weekend worth traveling for.
