All proceeds from this massive art festival benefits the local arts community. It goes toward student scholarships and grants to arts organizations as well as community programs.

Hidden Gems at the Festival

When discussing art festivals, most people think only of paintings and photographs. There is some of this type of artwork at the Sausalito festival, but it goes well beyond that. You will find booths where craftsmen show off their amazing jewelry collections, sculptures, and even 2-D or 3-D creations. There are booths where glassworkers and ceramic workers show off what they can do. One of the most fascinating displays is the woodworkers. At one booth demonstration, people watched a casting resin tutorial & easy cast review showing how to use resin to make arts & crafts. You may even find unique styles from clothing designers who dedicate their lives to transforming simple fabrics into masterpieces.

Each year the things that can be seen at this festival change as people push the boundaries of what is considered art in its truest, most beautiful form. This is why each year so many people choose to make it part of their Labor Day tradition.
