UNDERCOVER ARTS MAGAZINE

A magazine dedicated to cultural leadership, community development, makers, creatives and artists in Southern Arizona
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, SAACA suspended production of the 2021 issue of the magazine.  In 2022, we are working towards a digital version of the publication.  Check back in October 2021 for more details on the digital version of the magazine.  
Picture
A 2020 Issue of the UNDERCOVER ARTS Magazine highlights innovation in the arts, and momentum for change in our community,
​and the change makers who are making it all possible in so many different ways throughout Southern Arizona.  
The UNDERCOVER ARTS Magazine  was established in 2017 as a unique opportunity to highlight the thousands of makers, creatives, organizations and artists who create work and live in Southern Arizona.

The magazine is published annually in January, with a goal to illuminate and showcase the individual makers, creatives and artists who are strengthening the development of our creative sector and culture here in Southern Arizona. 

We believe that our community is one of the most vibrant arts and cultural spaces in the country, but often the stories of our artistic people and places go untold and unknown. Thus, our inspiration and vision for UNDERCOVER ARTS Magazine was born and we are motivated to give voice to these unheard tales of art, talent, creativity and hard work.  The UNDERCOVER ARTS Magazine is published by the Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance, a nonprofit organization who creates collaborative arts driven programming which uplift our connection to people, place and purpose.  
UNDERCOVER ARTS is the largest community magazine dedicated to the makers and creatives that define it.  With over 1,000 local resources in our community, it has become the most comprehensive overview of arts and culture throughout Southern Arizona. 

2020 ISSUE NOW AVAILABLE

Take a look at the digital copy below.  You can search for an artist, print the entire magazine or read more about the change makers in our community.
