Leaving Streaming Behind, the Santa Ana Artwalk Returns to Fourth Street This Saturday

After being forced to shut down in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Downtown Santa Ana Artwalk will be returning once more as an in-person event on Saturday.

On the first Saturday of every month, the artwalk welcomes art, local vendors, performances and festivities to downtown Santa Ana. The artwalk has been around since 1999, bringing in thousands of locals and others in the area to soak up the surrounding galleries, art centers and businesses.


South Coast Repertory Creates a New 'Normal' in Its 2021-22 Season


While the state of California is re-opened, the Delta variant of COVID-19 has caused a recent rise in infections and hospitalizations everywhere. Los Angeles has re-imposed a mask mandate for indoor businesses; Orange County has not yet followed suit but guidelines continue to evolve. Arts Orange County is proud to celebrate the return of gathering to enjoy the arts, but we strongly advise reviewing the individual rules for arts venues you plan to visit. We will continue to recommend a variety of both in-person and virtual ways to bring the arts into your life.
