I Madonnari Street Painting Festival

The I Madonnari Festival is the first of its kind in North America. The Festival presents the performance art of street painting and raises vital funding for the Children’s Creative Project (CCP), a nonprofit arts education program of the Santa Barbara County Education Office. Admission is free.

The Santa Barbara I Madonnari Street Painting Festival presents the rare opportunity to view artists of all ages create street paintings ranging from classical to original images.
