This year, the Festival of Arts introduces the new “Emerging Artists” exhibit, which provides a valuable opportunity for Laguna College of Art + Design to showcase their students’ artworks and expose them to the workings of a world-class juried art festival.

This initiative helps up-and-coming artists learn, grow, and develop their careers while connecting them with professional artists and local art organizations. It’s about nurturing their talent and building meaningful relationships within the local art community.
