Art in the Park features more than fifty top artists in every genre including oil, acrylic and watercolor painting, etching, photography, wood and metal working, stained glass, ceramics and a variety of other unusual and distinctive art forms.
The artists whose work is on display reside throughout San Diego County. They have been selected by a five person jurying process to insure consistent professional quality and originality. Many are represented in galleries and specialty shops throughout the San Diego area. Some have their own gallery/studios.
Participating artists show their work with us to enjoy the direct interaction with the art buying public. The artists must show their own work, so you are assured of the opportunity to converse with the actual creator of any art piece on display.
On your next visit to Coronado please stop by and see our show. You will enjoy the unique, professional work that our artists display.
