Laguna Art Museum Receives $3K Donation For Art & Nature Family Fest

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — The Laguna Art Museum was awarded a $3,000 grant from the Festival of Arts Foundation to support the museum's Art & Nature Family Festival, a free community event that provides a day of fun, enriching hands-on activities and educational stations throughout the museum for all ages.

According to the Laguna Art Museum, residents can join in on the next Art & Nature Family Festival at the Main Beach Cobblestones and the Laguna Art Museum on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

At the festival, residents will enjoy a docent-guided tour from the Main Beach Cobblestones through Heisler Park to view this year's outdoor exhibition, Pyramidon by Kelly Berg, before heading back to the museum.

There will also be hands-on activities and educational stations set up throughout the museum that explore art, climate, science, animal welfare and environmental education. The Art & Nature Family Festival and all-day museum admission will be free, according to organizers.

“We’re so thrilled to receive this generous gift from the Festival of Arts Foundation to help support the museum’s tenth annual Art & Nature Family Festival,” Executive Director of Laguna Art Museum Julie Perlin Lee said in a statement. “These important funds will help us provide an opportunity for families to learn about and explore the art-nature connection, fostering a love of art, nature and environmental awareness.”
