Come Join us at the Downtown Campbell Artwalk

Every third Friday, Downtown Campbell hosts it's very unique and fun Artwalk, a casual, "tour-on-your-own" style artwalk. Which is a great opportunity to visit with the art gallery owners to view their exciting handmade artistic creations in a friendly, casual and creative atmosphere. We have a info card with the resident art galleries located here in downtown, plus you get the added bonus of the guest artists that often participate monthly with their artwork!

From photography, fine art paintings, Raku ceramics, jewelry, textiles, silkscreen shirts (made to order while you wait no less), polymer clay creations and more, our artwalk is filled with great talent that brings additional depth to this monthly event.


To add to this festive event there is also an array of music placed on each block of downtown. The enjoyable sounds of classic guitar accompanied by vocals or perhaps a three piece group covering some classic jazz. No matter where you, you're sure to be soothed by some upbeat melodies.



The Community Canvas exhibit feature of the artwalk is a favorite for all aspiring young (or older) artists! This is a enjoyable opportunity to create a mini masterpiece for yourself, or add some of your flavor and creativity to a community painting! We have recently seen a few regulars come for the community canvas each artwalk who are getting more and more creative every month!  Come on over and indulge in the fun!


Hop on for a fun ride for artwalk!

During the warmer months Kwik Karts offers their people powered pedal powered services to downtown Campbell with their three-wheeled versatile vehicles are powered by trained, local drivers to provide a fun and practical mode of green transportation throughout our downtown. Now mind you, our downtown is a petite in its size, just over four blocks long, but with all of the artful finds you will encounter, you may need some ped-power to help you transport your new art pieces back to your car!
Get involved creating artwork - come on down!

So, if you feel yourself puzzled of how to spend your (third) Friday of each month, look no further, come visit, have some dinner at one of our fine eateries, stroll the avenue and meet the artists and get acquainted with what our downtown has to offer!
