Created
as a means of improving the walkability of our neighborhood, The Mar Vista ArtWalk is a fun, FREE celebration of all the arts. More walking = fewer cars + less greenhouse
gas + better health!
Designated
one of Mayor Garcetti’s “Great Streets”, the latest Venice Boulevard Mar Vista Art Walk will take
the meaning of “street art” to a new level, hosting the kickoff event for a new
attraction - the Mar Vista Walls
– activating an entire block of street art with a series of new murals
simultaneously painted by recognized street artists.
What
makes this art walk unique is its emphasis on sidewalk engagement. Instead of indoor gallery hopping bound by 4
walls, visitors interact with artists everywhere -- on sidewalks, in alley
parking lots and everywhere between.
Food
(vegan options), indie bands, live street painting, film, art installations,
emerging and established artists, dance and experimental video.
This
event is made possible in part by grants from the Department of Cultural
Affairs in partnership with Community Partners and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Special thanks to our sponsors Martian Ranch & Vineyard, Michelle Pine
Rappoport KW Realty, Pamela Day Enterprises and organizers Green Communications
Initiative, the enthusiastic support of Councilmember Mike Bonin and the Mar
Vista Community Council.
