This event includes a main venue in which applicants in a variety of art media apply to show their works in their own space (which each accepted artist must purchase). The event is an annual celebration of art held in a special park where there are world class art galleries for visitors to see on a daily basis. It's a perfect event and time to begin exploring San Diego's rich art history.

Other art events that are quite popular in San Diego include the La Jolla Art Show which takes to the streets of La Jolla each summer.

Another art-inspired event with a reputation for being anything but ordinary is the quirky but extremely popular Busker Fest.
