Feast your eyes–and ears–on a stunning showcase of local creativity, including an array of original artwork and captivating musical performances, at Southern California’s most anticipated event of the summer season.

Set in the vibrant arts destination of Laguna Beach, the annual Festival of Arts Fine Art Show returns from July 3-August 30, 2024.

Art enthusiasts of all ages flock to the Festival to admire paintings, sculpture, photography, ceramics, and jewelry handcrafted by 120 exhibiting artists across Orange County.

Guests can also enjoy live entertainment, art classes, and special events.

Since beginning in 1932, the Festival has allowed thousands of talented artists to display their one-ofa-kind pieces to a wide audience.

“Festival attendees will also have the opportunity to engage directly with the artists, gaining insight into their inspirations, techniques, and creative processes. Interactive art classes (sponsored by Bank of America), live demonstrations, and guided art tours (sponsored by PBS SoCal) further enrich the visitor experience, fostering a deeper connection between the creators and their audience.”

Music lovers will delight in the Festival’s daily live concerts and events, sponsored by the City of Hope Orange County and Yamaha.

“After making its debut at South Coast Plaza, ‘The Music of Hope’ continues at the Festival of Arts all summer long. City of Hope’s blue ‘Hope’ piano will be prominently featured on the Festival’s stage, honoring everyone whose lives have been touched by cancer. As part of this partnership, the Festival introduces ‘Spotlight on the Music of Hope Blue Piano’ on select Saturday nights, showcasing talented musicians who will enrich the lives of community members through this uplifting concert series.”

Another Festival highlight, Family Art Day, returns on Sunday, July 14, with a special animal theme. Visitors will tap into their creativity with creature-inspired art projects and enjoy visits from furry, feathered special guests while having a blast with their family.

“For the adults, ‘Art, Jazz, Wine and Chocolate’ (sponsored by Charles Schwab and Cambria Estate Winery) provides the perfect atmosphere to pair wine, chocolate, and smooth jazz amongst an unmatched gallery setting.”

Looking for a ticket to the most stylish affair of the summer?

Each night, from July 6-August 30, the annual Pageant of the Masters production will present “À La Mode: The Art of Fashion.”

“The 2024 Pageant of the Masters will mesmerize audiences with a captivating journey through history's most iconic fashion trends and spectacles, brought to life through the artistry of living pictures, unforgettable music, and engaging storytelling. Artwork to be re-created include pieces by traditional masters like John Singer Sargent and James Tissot, as well as works by contemporary artists such as Erté and David Hockney.”

This nonprofit organization encourages consumers to paint smarter by disposing of their leftover paint responsibly

This summer, explore new ways to bond with your family by sprucing up your space.

Thanks to PaintCare, you can refresh and renew a piece of furniture, a room, or even your whole house in an environmentally friendly fashion.

“Beat summer boredom, brighten your home, and reuse a valuable resource–all with the power of leftover house paint! Gather the kids, dust off your paintbrushes, and get ready for creative, eco-friendly fun. These DIY paint projects are perfect for family bonding, transforming your space with vibrant colors, and unleashing your inner artist while repurposing your leftover paint!”

Established in October of 2012, PaintCare now has year-round dropoff sites all around the country, including 770 sites across California.

“PaintCare makes it easy to recycle leftover paint . In states with paint stewardship laws, we operate recycling programs on behalf of paint manufacturers.”

To date, over 69.7 million gallons of used paint have been collected. PaintCare has also provided 10,213 large-volume pickups and hosted 357 paint drop-off events.

So how exactly does it work?

In states where PaintCare operates, we encourage households and businesses to take their unwanted, leftover paint to a [aintCare drop-off site. Most sites are paint retailers, which are

convenient locations open year-round and seven days a week. Across the PaintCare programs, there are more than 2,400 drop-off sites.”

“By participating in this program, you can ensure your paint is recycled properly and contribute to a cleaner environment and future.”

Looking for inspiration? Here are some DIY ideas from PaintCare:

PLANTERS WITH PERSONALITY!

Ditch those dull, drab planters and create masterpieces your greenery will adore with the whole family. Let your imaginations run wild with stripes, polka dots, or rainbows. Want more inspiration? Search online for kid-friendly planter designs–from cute animals to silly faces, the possibilities are endless for painters of all ages! Your plants will love their colorful new homes.

FURNITURE MAKEOVER MANIA

Have a chair that's seen better days, or a side table that's a bit too plain? It’s a rescue mission! Set up a workspace outside and let everyone participate. Younger kids can help with sanding, while older ones can tackle painting. Choose bright colors for a playful vibe or go for a coordinated theme– it's your family's unique creation!

ACCENT WALL ADVENTURES

A bold accent wall makes a big style statement, and it's the perfect summer project for a team effort. Let the kids pick a fun paint color and have them help with taping or even painting smaller sections. If you're feeling adventurous, try adding stripes, a funky geometric pattern, or even creating a mural!”

CREATIVE IDEAS FOR LEFTOVERS

Do you still have some leftover paint? The fun doesn't stop there! Here are some additional DIY ideas:

• Bold Birdhouse: Transform a basic wooden birdhouse into a colorful masterpiece.

• Painted Rocks: Decorate smooth stones for the garden or write supportive messages and hide them as kindness rocks for others to find.

• Personalized Gifts: Spruce up plain picture frames, flowerpots, or trinket boxes to make one-of-a-kind presents.

THE PLANET-FRIENDLY PART

“The best part of these projects? You're teaching valuable lessons about upcycling and taking care of our planet. More than 800 million gallons of architectural paint are sold in the US each year and as much as 10% of that goes unused. Leftover paint isn’t trash – it’s an opportunity to create something new and reduce waste.”
