Important Guidelines

Please read EVERYTHING

  • First Friday Art Walk begins at 5pm and ends at 8pm. (*NOTE new time.) You must be in your space by 3:30, otherwise your space may be given to a person on our waiting list.

  • We recommend artists and vendors arrive early, park and unload gear where directed. Then park vehicles for the evening in any number of free parking spaces around Artist Alley.

  • Artists need to have at least five family friendly pieces of artwork to show.

  • Artist Alley space size is is 8’x6’ and cannot accommodate 10x10 canopies.

  • Every artist is 100% responsible for their space set up. That includes easels, tables, grid walls, signs and especially wireless lights (when necessary).

  • IMPORTANT : Artist Alley no longer has night time lighting. We suggest you bring your own (battery operated) lighting. It’s needed after sundown.

  • Please leave your space at least as clean as it looked when you arrived.

  • Oceanside Friends of the Arts is not responsible for any theft or damage to participants’ artwork or supplies.

  • Finally, ENJOY THE EVENT! Oceanside Art Walk provides excellent opportunities to network with other artists and meet potential art buyers.
