MAR VISTA ART & MUSIC WALK

Mona Lisa" by artist Zebi
Join us this Sunday at the Mar Vista Farmer’s Market Green Tent to find out about the upcoming Mar Vista Music & Art Walk. Created as a means to improve the walkability of our neighborhood, this local art walk is a fun, FREE celebration of all the arts. More walking = fewer cars + less greenhouse gas + better health! 

All along the 1-mile stretch of Venice Blvd between Inglewood Blvd and Lyceum Street, the sidewalks and parking lots will be transformed by this walk's theme: SPECTRUM: A Celebration of LGBTQ+. 

In addition to the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, SPECTRUM celebrates the life of Blaze N. Bernstein, a promising local student cut down in an Orange County hate crime. Blaze’s family are much loved, longtime Mar Vista residents and great supporters of local arts and artists.

The September Art Walk has been moved - by community demand - to Saturday, September 14th, from 4-10 p.m., to allow more families with young children, seniors and students to come out and enjoy the neighborhood.
The Mar Vista Art Walk is a joint effort of environmental nonprofit Green Communications Initiative (GCI) and the community of local artists.
