Carlsbad ArtSplash2004

Carlsbad is a beautiful town on the Southern California coast about 30 miles north of San Diego.
The Carlsbad Arts Associates has dedicated themselves to creating a very active cultural life for the community, sponsoring school and community programs, Artists in Residence programs as well as public art programs, including the City of Carlsbad Sculpture Garden and the Art in Public Places program. Once a year the community joins together for a street painting festival, Street painting festivals began with the "Madonnari" of 16th century Italy and in a homage to this beginning much of the art at ArtSplash is religious in reference. ArtSplash is accompanied by a full two days of music from artists in the local community, vendors selling art and food. Performers stroll the grounds entertaining children with majic, art and performance.

More about ArtSplash is available at http://www.CarlsbadArtSplash.org

Carlsbad, CA 92008-1989
the 2005 ArtsSplash is scheduled for September 24 & 25.
