Let’s go to Paseo! The 41st Annual Paseo Arts Festival is Memorial Day weekend
Oklahoma City – The Paseo Arts District’s 41st Annual Paseo Arts Festival will take place May 27 and 28 from 10 a.m.- 8 p.m. with live music until 10 p.m., and May 29 from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Visitors will enjoy more than 90 visual artists, who will fill the Historic Paseo Arts District with original artwork: everything from painting, ceramics and photography to woodworking, sculpture and jewelry.
The Festival is also famous for its dozens of musicians and live performers on two stages. Lovers of the culinary arts rejoice! The food court will feature 20 food and drink vendors with traditional and not-so-traditional festival treats, both savory and sweet. Think gyros, Asian food, monster wraps, jerk chicken and mini donuts made to order, not to mention the great beers from Roughtail Brewing Co. The children's area allows future artists to explore the arts and have fun while creating.
Shudder at the thought of parking? The Paseo Express, a shuttle bus, will run every 15 minutes to the parking lot at First Christian Church at NW 36th and Walker, making it beyond easy to park and ride. Shuttle hours are 10 a.m. – 9 p.m. May 28 and 29 and from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. May 30.
The Paseo Arts Festival draws thousands of people who come to enjoy the sights, sounds, and tastes of this annual Oklahoma City tradition. It is also the Paseo Arts Association’s largest fundraiser, enabling the Association to offer arts programs and events in the Paseo year-round. The Paseo is OKC’s unique arts destination. Dozens of galleries, restaurants and shops stand in distinctive Spanish Mission Revival style buildings, all within walking distance. The Paseo Arts District is located between Northwest 30th and 27th Streets and Walker and Hudson.
