USA Special Event Description:
America's #1 Art Festival draws Artists from around the world (38 states and 15 countries) to the beautiful Sausalito waterfront, just minutes north of San Francisco. Collectors spend $4,000,000 on Art and $50,000 on Champagne and enjoy entertainment by nationally-known entertainers.
America's premier outdoor fine art festival is held every Labor Day weekend along the scenic northern Sausalito waterfront. The Festival Gallery will present more than 20,000 original works of art by 270 juried artists (historically from about three dozen states and two dozen from abroad). In recent years, Artists have reported sales of over $4,000,000 as a result of the show.
Festival highlights include a magnificent Sculpture Garden, three entertainment stages, Children's area, Gourmet Food Court, Wine and Champagne Gardens, and Bay Model tours.
On Friday, the Festival hosts the celebrated Gala Premiere, featuring gourmet dining by celebrity Caterer Dan McCall & Associates, and dancing until Midnight.
The Sausalito Art Festival Foundation produces the non-profit event. The Festival continues its mission of supporting the arts and community non-profit organizations through grant programs, artist awards, scholarships, and community service programs. Through this support, the Festival has made a significant investment in the arts and community programs since 1952. In recent years, Artists have sold over $4,000,000 in art as a result of the show.
