ArtWalk Bringing Art, Music, Portrait Contest To Livermore

LIVERMORE, CA — Livermore will soon turn into an open-air art museum thanks to ArtWalk, an annual event downtown displaying the work of over 200 artists, as well as live music, performances, and crafts.

On Saturday, Oct. 12 from 11-5, artists will display everything from pottery to jewelry to mixed media to paintings, and visitors will have a chance to interact with them firsthand. In the lobby of the Bankhead, visitors will enjoy exhibits like "Walk Among Stars" from the Quest Science Center, the art exhibit "Back to the Moon and the Stars Beyond," art from veteran Bud Donaldson, and art from high school students.

On First Street, artists will paint portraits, and visitors will be able to vote for their favorite portrait artist.
