We know we live in one of the most creative communities in Southern California. It’s time to focus on the magic that brought many artists and entertainers to Ventura. ArtWalk is back! This two-day event will feature local arts venues and new creative collaboratives in unique spaces. Large art installations, music, poetry, dance and theater will all be a part of this event run by a new and enthusiastic all-volunteer team.
Good news! In an effort to be more inclusive we have lowered the prices to participate and are reaching out to new partners.
Existing business spaces, community art venues and galleries will be charged $200. This will include featured location information on the website, listings on all print and online advertising, location spots on the maps and shout outs on social media. It is up to these spaces and venues to arrange for artists to showcase and to determine artist fees, if any. However, if you own a business in the ArtWalk zone and would like help placing an artist, the ArtWalk Strategy Committee can assign one.

The owners of empty storefronts and other unused spaces will not be charged to be a Creative Palette Space. However, we will charge artists who wish to exhibit in these provided spaces and those we need to place in business venues. The fee is $50. This artist fee includes the artist’s name, their location information on the website, listings on all print and online advertising, location spots on the maps and shout outs on social media. ArtWalk organizers will assign artists to these spaces.
