Crystal Vortex Sedona.
Eben + Ali Hartzenberg bring their love for crystals to life by sharing it with the world. When they started their journey, they felt like crystals had been boxed in as ‘hippie’, misunderstood and undervalued by the mainstream. There were no modern websites that demystified crystals, how they work, or how they could be incorporated into a modern-day lifestyle. So, they set out to change that.
What Is A Vortex In Sedona?
Nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Arizona's red rock country, Sedona is a world renowned destination for both natural beauty and spiritual wonder. One of the most captivating aspects of this enchanting town is its energy vortex sites, which have drawn seekers of enlightenment and curious travelers alike. Sedona's vortexes are believed to be areas of concentrated spiritual and metaphysical energy that are conducive to healing, meditation, and self-awareness. People travel from all across the globe to experience the swirling energy centers that are said to emanate from the red rocks. While there are many vortexes in the Sedona area, five of them are particularly well-known: Bell Rock Vortex | Cathedral Rock Vortex | Airport Mesa Vortex | Boynton Canyon Vortex | The Chapel of the Holy Cross Vortex | READ MORE
“Pretty” Sedona
Sedona /sɪˈdoʊnə/ is a city that straddles the county line between Coconino and Yavapai counties in the northern Verde Valley region of the U.S. state of Arizona. It is within the Coconino National Forest.
Sedona's main attraction is its array of red sandstone formations. The formations appear to glow in brilliant orange and red when illuminated by the rising or setting sun. The red rocks form a popular backdrop for many activities, ranging from spiritual pursuits to the hundreds of hiking and mountain biking trails. Sedona is also the home to the nationally recognized McDonald's with Turquoise Arches, instead of the traditional Golden Arches.
Sedona was named after Sedona Arabella Miller Schnebly, the wife of Theodore Carlton Schnebly, the city's first postmaster. She was celebrated for her hospitality and industriousness. Her mother, Amanda Miller, claimed to have made the name up because "it sounded pretty".

Hadley Rampton
Hadley Rampton’s paintings are an amalgamation of her love of composition, color, mark making and being present in the outdoors. “I’m energized by the challenges and beauty of nature, by the dynamics of light, atmosphere and temperature in the Rocky Mountains and in the deserts of the southwest” says Rampton. Her work rests somewhere between abstraction and realism. “It’s clear to see in [Rampton’s] work that her sense of being outside mixes with her thoughts and blends with her knowledge of formal color theory, paint application, as well as a feel for the abstract composition.” (Michele Corriel, Western Art & Architecture, 2015). In plein air painting, there is an immediacy that takes hold and guides the process. Rampton grasps hold of this energy but, especially in her larger pieces, combines it with a more contemplative studio approach, as she will work on the same piece over several days.
THE COWBOY CLUB.
VISIT THE COWBOY CLUB
The Cowboy Club (Formerly the Oak Creek Tavern) has been the social center of Sedona for over seventy years. The tavern originally opened in 1946 serving as the meeting place, pool hall, saloon and grocery store to locals and tourists alike. During the 1950s and 1960s, over fifty western movies were filmed in the area. When the day’s shooting was done, the wood walls echoed with the talk and laughter of Hollywood’s biggest stars. Legends like John Wayne, James Stewart, Donna Reed, Robert Mitchum, Burt Lancaster, Rock Hudson, Glen Ford and Joan Crawford were known to enjoy the warm fire and welcoming atmosphere. Even Elvis was said to frequent the tavern while filming 1968’s Stay Away Joe.

ARTS & CRAFTS VILLAGE
Your unforgettable Sedona experience must include spending time at internationally renowned Tlaquepaque (pronounced T-la-keh-pah-keh), Sedona Arizona's Arts & Crafts Village, one of the best things to do in Sedona.
Nestled beneath the shade of the sycamores on the banks of beautiful Oak Creek in Sedona, Tlaquepaque is the most distinctive Sedona shopping experience to be found in the Southwest.
Authentically fashioned after a traditional Mexican village, Tlaquepaque, meaning the "best of everything," has been a Sedona landmark since the 1970s. Its "vine-covered" stucco walls, cobble-stoned walkways, and magnificent arched entryways give you the feeling that Tlaquepaque has been here for centuries.
Tasteful galleries and unique shops live in harmony with its lush natural environment where giant sycamore trees stand in testimony to the care taken in preserving the timeless beauty of the Tlaquepaque grounds. It would be hard to find more beautiful surroundings anywhere to create a shopping experience like no other.
Originally conceived as an artist community, Tlaquepaque is a perfect setting to witness gifted Sedona artisans absorbed in their work. It's not uncommon to venture upon a well-known sculptor working on his or her latest piece right in one of the Tlaquepaque galleries. With over 50 specialty shops and exclusive art galleries, shopping becomes a joyful revelation of fabulous art treasures and distinctive gifts around every corner.
Tlaquepaque is filled with spectacular "one-of-a-kind" art expressions in every medium from Western and eclectic bronze sculptures, functional and traditional ceramics, breathtaking blown glass creations, contemporary and Southwestern fine art paintings, weavings, decorative arts, architectural décor pieces, and stunning large format photography. Fine contemporary jewelry, designer casual wear in silks, and leathers, and unusual gift items all await the Tlaquepaque visitor.
