As promised, it's time for the annual Lake Worth Street Painting Festival. Watch Art Emerge! If you've never attended this event, and you enjoy art, I would highly recommend you work this day into your schedule and join us! Downtown Lake Worth and the Greater Lake Worth Chamber of Commerce invite you to the annual Street Painting Festival, which claims bragging rights as the country’s largest.
The 2-day event transforms the downtown streets with more than 200 street paintings sponsored by businesses, organizations, families and individuals, covering more area than any other festival of its kind in the U.S. Hundreds of artists converge to display their diverse talents on the asphalt – using only chalk – in styles that range from Renaissance classicism to Cubism and Pop Art. Street performers, strolling minstrels and Mainstage musical entertainment add to the creative atmosphere. To learn more about the event check out the website here: Festival Website
I've attended this festival for a number of years, and since it is a two day event, Sunday usually gives the visitor an opportunity to view the works closer to their completion. Let's meet Sunday at 11:00am in front of the Irish Bar, Brogues. Brogues is located in the middle of downtown Lake Worth (621 Lake Avenue Lake Worth, 33460). There should be plenty of parking in various lots and along the side streets.From there, we can wander the streets, check out the work, enjoy the day and then stop in at one of the many bars and restaurants for lunch or a drink if you choose. The event goes on until 6:00pm, so you can stay for a short time there or relax and enjoy the afternoon in the city.
For those that RSVP yes or maybe, I'll be sending a message as the date gets closer to include my cell phone to contact me if you are having trouble locating us.
