Stroll through Old Town La Quinta and take in the one-of-a-kind fine art and photography alongside jewelry, ceramics, textiles, glass, woodwork and more, all thoughtfully handmade by passionate creators.
Over 100 talented artists come to each Art on Main Street event, and they’re excited to meet with attendees and answer questions about their work and inspiration. Visual art displays line Main Street, live music fills the air and the community comes together for a truly whimsical art experience in the desert.
