Lake Worth Street Painting Festival

childrens medowWatch it Happen
Welcome to the Annual Lake Worth Street Painting Festival! Watch as over 400 Artists use the pavement as canvas to transform downtown Lake Worth into a temporary outdoor museum of original art and masterpiece reproductions.

Watch the streets come alive as the artists transform the pavement into works of art. It happens the last weekend of every February in downtown Lake Worth, Florida.

Street Painting
The great tradition of street painting began in Italy in the 16th century. A crowd would gather whenever an itinerant artist used his chalks to turn the ordinary pavement into a fine work of art. Although the "painting" would only last until the next rain, the tradition of street painting has endured over 400 years.

The Festival
The downtown streets will be brimming with over 200 street paintings, sponsored by businesses, organizations, and individuals. Artists will fill the pavement with their works of art. The festival will also include strolling minstrels, jazz, classical music, dance, theatre, improvisation, and an array of street side cafes.

Young Artist Studio
The Young Artist Studio features the street paintings of Palm Beach County elementary, middle, and high school students.
