Activities & Events
in Idyllwild California
|
|
 From the informality of a Saturday
Morning Art Café held in the galleries to the
two day Jazz in the Pines festival, Idyllwild
has earned the distinction of becoming one of
the 100 Best Small Art Towns in America (as
designated in the book of the same name by
John Villani, A John Muir publication).
With numerous galleries presenting the work of more
than 200 artists, visitors will find seldom seen
art treasures in jewelry, furniture, glass,
ceramics, paintings, photography, wood, weavings
and sculpture. The gallery association of the Art
Alliance of Idyllwild makes sure that your will see
unique and individual work at every gallery
space.
 The Art Alliance of Idyllwild
schedules numerous visual art events in the
galleries and for its artist members. Major
gallery openings and artist events are on the
first Saturday of the month from March through
December. The Sunday Morning Art Café's which
present local artists in informal and
educational demonstrations are popular with
local residents and visitors from May through
September. The annual Art Walk and Wine
Tasting turns the village into an art festival
with keepsake wine glasses, more than 28
wineries, horse drawn carriages, entertainment
and special exhibitions in every gallery.
Music, dance, and theatre in the pines is a weekly
occurrence. Everything from the two day Jazz in the
Pines in August to a series of summer concerts in
the park and the annual Messiah by the Master
Chorale provide opportunities to experience world
class orchestras, soloists, jazz masters and local
musicians.
Community theatre groups and student productions in
dance and theatre from the Idyllwild Arts Academy
to Idyllwild's own professional theatre company,
Isis Theatre Company, are ongoing throughout the
year. |
