2009 Festival

The 2009 La Jolla Festival of the Arts takes place June 20-21 in beautiful coastal San Diego county. The 23rd annual event welcomes guests to enjoy the outstanding work of nearly 200 fine artists from the USA and Mexico. You'll also enjoy the Festival’s newest attraction: Calle Color ~ a live street chalking exhibition where nationally recognized Madonnari (street painters) will turn an asphalt canvas into a beautiful street of colors and our inaugural High School Street Chalking Competition. Additionally, we will offer more celebrity author lectures and book signings, and a second entertainment area. And since Sunday is Father's Day, be prepared for more special events geared just for Dad. Come spend the day with us and enjoy it all: great food, live music, and most importantly, spectacular ART!

The La Jolla Festival of the Arts is a spectacular two day event of art, food, music, chalk art, and more. Its convenient San Diego location offers beautiful Southern California sunshine, fresh ocean breezes, and plenty of FREE parking.

Experience street chalk art at Calle Color. Featured Madonnaro, Lori Escalera, and other premier street artists recreate the masters in brilliant colors and detail. Street art is temporary, and shared by all. It's a don't miss event, and included in admission. More...

The purpose of the La Jolla Festival of the Arts is to raise funds that support sports and recreation programs for disabled San Diegans. Some of the programs include adaptive snow skiing, karate, wheelchair road racing, camping, wheelchair tennis, water skiing, quadriplegic rugby, therapeutic horseback riding, and art and education programs. We increasingly fund rehabilitative programs for disabled veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. More...
