27th Annual Carmel Art Festival

Like many events over the past few years, the Carmel Art Festival was on hiatus during 2020-21, but this year’s event at Devendorf Park should be better than ever. Watch for some of the sixty different artists creating plein air (French for “open-air”) paintings all over the picturesque peninsula landscape Wednesday and Thursday before the festival. Friday evening will kick things off with a judging and award presentation, leading into a weekend of family fun including Sculpture-in-the Park, art-making for kids, live music, and more. The event is free to the public, and art will be available for purchase through Sunday evening
