PARTICIPATE
Be Part of ArtWalk Carlsbad!
ArtWalk Carlsbad celebrates both visual and performing arts in North County San Diego. We believe art has the power to connect communities, cultivate new artistic talent and create a better quality of life for all through cultural enrichment.
Thousands of attendees come to view and purchase artwork, enjoy live music performances, and participate in interactive art experiences. The event takes place on Armada Drive, a wide tree-lined boulevard overlooking the ocean. Cool ocean breezes and stunning views make the venue a spectacular backdrop.
All ArtWalk San Diego events benefit our arts education non-profit partner, ArtReach. The organization brings high quality art lessons into schools that have no other resources for art education. Since 2007, ArtReach has served more than 30,000 students, county-wide.
Artists
ArtWalk Carlsbad focuses on fine art on display and for sale by the artists, who travel from all over the US and Mexico to show and sell their work. In a venue overlooking the ocean, attendees can explore different facets of art while enjoying beautiful views and much more. The festival will feature fine art including painting, sculpture, glass work, fine jewelry, photography and more. More than 150 fine artists’ work will be featured, along with interactive art for families at KidsWalk, a full palette of musical performers, food trucks and stands, and more.
Performers
Every year, ArtWalk’s designated North County festival welcomes dozens of musical artists from every corner of San Diego County to perform. From singer-songwriters, to instrument-focused full bands, no genre is off-limits! With a focus on original music, ArtWalk proudly provides an outlet for talented artists of all ages to perform to thousands of attendees. We invite you to apply to play at one of our upcoming events!
