Arts festival turns Menlo Park street into outdoor gallery

By /

The Menlo Park Sidewalk Fine Arts & Crafts Fall Fest turned a length of Santa Cruz Avenue into an outdoor gallery last weekend. Art enthusiasts admired the paintings, sculptures, furniture, clothing and jewelry brought by over 90 artists to the festival.

The event takes place annually as part of Pacific Fine Arts Festivals. Founded in 1980, Pacific Fine Arts Festivals organizes arts and crafts festivals throughout California with artists from the West Coast and beyond. Though the Menlo Park Sidewalk Fine Arts & Crafts Fall Fest ended on Oct. 5, you can catch the 24th annual San Carlos Chamber of Commerce’s Art & Wine Faire on Oct. 11 and 12.
