The Italian tradition of street painting dates to the 16th century when itinerant artists would travel from town to town for religious festivals and transform the streets and public squares into temporary galleries for their works of art. Although their paintings lasted only until the next rain, the tradition has endured for more than 400 years.

The Street Painting Festival is free and open to the public on Saturday & Sunday, February 25 & 26, 2012, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Pastels are the medium and works produced are temporary. There are no fees!
