Art Supplies Donation Days
Wednesdays, August 18 & 25
On August 18 and August 25, festival goers who bring in a new or unused art supply valued at $5 or more on either day will receive FREE ADMISSION that day to all three art festivals.
The Laguna Beach Passport to the Arts team, including Art-A-Fair, Festival of the Arts, Sawdust Art Festival and the Laguna Beach Visitors and Conference Bureau are able to hold this event thanks to a generous grant from Bank of America.
Art supplies will be donated to Art & Creativity for Healing, an Orange County non-profit. The supplies will be used by students enrolled in the Camp Pendleton Marine Base schools that have a parent deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan.
Suggested art supplies to bring in are new and unused markers, colored pencils, small journals, sketchpads, sketching pencils, watercolor sets and watercolor pads.
