Times Standard (Eureka)

Art festival moves to Henderson Center

-

The third annual Eureka Street Art Festival will be spreading color throughout the Henderson Center neighborho­od from Aug. 10 to 15.

Due to the coronaviru­s, this year’s festival will look a little different. There will not be any large gatherings, but the festival will stay true to its mission of bringing colorful murals to brighten the neighborho­ods of Eureka.

Everyone is invited to walk through Henderson Center throughout the weeklong festival to watch painting in progress or to participat­e in “Virtual Daily Art Walks,” which will be streamed on

Facebook Live and available to watch on the festival website. Organizers will be publishing a selfguided walking tour on the website and social media sites leading up to the event to help everyone enjoy this event at their own pace and in a physically distanced and safe manner.

For more informatio­n, follow the festival on instagram @eurekastre­etartfesti­val and visit www.eurekastre­etartfesti­val.com.

The Eureka Street Art Festival’s mission is to create intentiona­l, accessible art that enlivens public spaces, stimulates community revitaliza­tion and attracts visitors to Eureka.
