The Countdown is On!

The 25th Annual Art in the Village, on Sunday, June 25, is less than two weeks away. Join us from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm when four downtown blocks of Carlsbad Village will turn into an open-air art show for the 25th Annual Art in the Village. Stroll our charming Village streets, just two blocks from the ocean, and take in amazing artwork, live music on stage, performance art, demonstrations, and interactive displays.

Held every Summer since 1998, the Carlsbad Village Association has hosted Art in the Village, a free, one-day, open-air art show, that features fine artists from all over the region. All artwork is juried and you can meet the artists in their booths the day of the event. Oil, watercolor, mixed media, digital, photography, glasswork, woodworking, jewelry, pottery, and more will be on display and for purchase.

Activities For All Art Enthusiasts

What can you expect at Art in the Village? In addition to amazing fine art on display, you can also enjoy live demonstrations including sculpting, glass art, and even pottery making.

Live musical acts will be on the Ting Internet stage and nine solo sidewalk performers will play throughout the venue during the day.

The City of Carlsbad will be hosting the Pop-Up Art (formerly Family Open Studios) art making booth for children and art enthusiasts of all ages. Trained instructors will guide interested artists in creating works of art on their own. A face painter will be nearby to add to the fun.

Local Food and Beverage Scene

The CVA Food, Wine, and Beer garden will be returning in 2023 to popular demand. This is a family-friendly location in the heart of the venue at the corner of State Street and Grand Avenue that will offer delicious local food, craft beer and wine. Our local food and drink purveyors always create something special in the garden and we hope you will join us there! And this year, CVA Member, Kiln, has generously sponsored a lovely hospitality seating area in the garden where you can relax for a bit.

Location

Grand and State Streets, in the heart of Carlsbad Village. The coaster station stops in the center of the event, making it a great day to skip the driving and let the train bring you to Carlsbad Village.
