2027 Festival Live Art Show & Sale

The 2027 Redlands Festival of the Arts will feature a Live Art Show and Sale over the Memorial Day Weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 29-30 in Smiley Park in Redlands, California. Over 100 artists from across the USA will display their works and compete in this juried art show.

This family-friendly fun event includes hands-on youth art creative activities and a Youth Art Expo with a high school student live chalk art competition.  There are also multiple musical stages with dozens of musical artists and a food, beer and wine garden with seating under the shade of the trees behind the A.K. Smiley Library and adjacent to the Lincoln Shrine.  Redlands is located in about 1 hour east from Los Angeles along the Interstate 10 with picturesque views of citrus groves, an historic downtown and below the San Bernardino mountains.
