Phoenix Art Museum is set to host "Women Powered: Stories that Define Leaders" in March, offering attendees a chance to network and hear from women leaders about their leadership journeys. The event includes a panel discussion featuring women from various industries sharing personal insights and wisdom. A networking hour, Sip+Share, will precede the panel, providing time for community connection with local entrepreneurs and executives.

In addition to this event, the museum will unveil Eamon Ore-Giron's new commission "Tomorrow’s Monsoon" in the Greenbaum Lobby. This work draws inspiration from the Arizona desert and reflects Ore-Giron's transcultural approach.

The museum will also open a special photography exhibition titled "Widening the Lens: Photography, Ecology, and the Contemporary Landscape" on February 26. This exhibition features nearly 65 works by 18 artists and challenges traditional photography concepts through thematic sections like Archive, Remembering, Pathfinding, and Horizon.

Phoenix Art Museum offers several free-access programs such as Pay-What-You-Wish Wednesdays supported by SRP and City of Phoenix. Maricopa County Community College students receive free general admission thanks to support from Men’s Arts Council.

Upcoming events include First Friday on March 7 with music by DJ J-M Lee and art experiences with local muralists. Family Studio workshops led by artist educator Meg Gizzi are scheduled for March 23. PhxArt Family Funday also returns on March 23 with complimentary admission.
