Angie Crabtree IRL: Live Interview, Painting & Panel Discussion

Join renowned artist Angie Crabtree in person at the Tucson Gem Show on 22nd Street on Sunday, February 1, from Noon - 2 pm for a special afternoon of live painting, interviews, and a panel discussion with some of the gem industry's top luminaries.

Angie Crabtree’s paintings dissect the mythology of luxury. Diamonds became her first muse—the commodification of nature, the way raw beauty is captured, fixed, and displayed as proof of success. Their natural forms, once buried deep beneath the earth, are now mined, cut, and polished into representations of what’s impossibly valuable. By enlarging them to a monumental scale, she invites viewers to consider the origins of the stones, their societal significance, and to reconsider their true value.

The Tucson Gem Show on 22nd Street is thrilled to host celebrated artist Angie Crabtree and her stunning work during this year’s show.

Join for a full afternoon of programming on Sunday, February 1, from Noon - 2 pm taking place in the Food Court tent located right outside of the Showcase tent. The event includes a retrospective of Angie Crabtree's career and art, followed by a live painting, and rounded out with a panel discussion from industry titans within the gem and mineral field.
