A ton of ways to experience and participate in public art! Because murals will be made on site and outdoors, you can stop by multiple times throughout the festival week and see the artists’ progress. You’ll also have a chance to meet artists and other members of our art community through artist talks, community events, and hands-on activities. Imagine a block party with paint!
We anticipate that most festival events will be free and open to the public.
