Community event to showcase diverse artistic expressions and support local businesses in Atascadero
ATASCADERO — A-Town Art Hop is hosting its first Downtown Art Walk, set to take place on Friday, Sept. 6, from 6 to 9 p.m. This community event will celebrate various forms of artistic expression, including painting, ceramics, artistic jewelry, sculpture, music, photography, literature, printmaking, poetry, and embroidery among other forms.
A-Town Art Hop is looking for artists to join the event. They are inviting all artists in and around San Luis Obispo County to participate. Artists are encouraged to submit up to five images of their work for consideration by July 25. Submissions should be sent to atownarthop@gmail.com.
A-Town Art Hop aims to bring together art, culture, and commerce, creating a lively evening that benefits both local businesses and artists. Participating businesses will host artists who will exhibit their work for sale or simply for appreciation, fostering a vibrant and engaging atmosphere.
The inaugural A-Town Art Hop will coincide with the city’s Fall First Friday, offering a non-alcoholic, family-friendly event that encourages visitors to explore downtown shops and restaurants. This free, all-ages, self-guided walking tour is designed to support local businesses and provide a platform for local artists to showcase their talents.
All Atascadero businesses, galleries, and organizations are invited to join in this exciting event. For more information on how to participate in future art walks, contact atownarthop@gmail.com.
