An artist’s haven
“Little Italy is an artist’s haven and takes pride in supporting local so, what better place for this exciting new ArtWalk event than Little Italy?”, said Chris Gomez, District Manager of the Little Italy Association. “We are proud to host this event in our community and can’t wait to see the incredible works of art displayed, while walking through the Piazza and taking in the crisp San Diego summer air.”
“We’re ecstatic to bring this new event to Little Italy and help spread our love and excitement for art,” said Curt Brooker, Director of ArtWalk San Diego. “The art community has shown an unbelievable amount of resilience this past year and we’re committed to continuing to help them thrive.”
“As in-person events continue to pick back up, we look forward to bringing new light and hope into people’s homes and art collections. Whether you’re a seasoned art collector or just looking for a new piece to add to your home, office or as a gift, I can guarantee you’ll find something at our Summer Series.”
Supporting ArtReach San Diego
The ArtWalk Little Italy Summer Series, in addition to ArtWalk San Diego’s three annual festivals, support their partner, ArtReach San Diego, a nonprofit organization aimed at increasing equity in visual arts education in K-8 schools throughout San Diego County by delivering free or low-cost workshops to schools that have no other resources for art, focusing on Title One Schools. Many of the programs ArtReach offers are provided at no cost to schools.
Attendance is free. For more information on ArtWalk and its programs, please visit here. For more information on additional events taking place in Little Italy, click here.
