Experience the vibrant energy of Downtown ABQ as we bring the streets to life with live music, spoken word, dynamic dance performances, and a variety of other exciting arts on outdoor stages. Stroll through our colorful outdoor market featuring talented local artisans and makers. We’re on the lookout for passionate local performers and creative vendors to help make this series shine! This lively program will run all summer, showcasing a diverse lineup of acts at events throughout the season. By applying, you're helping us build a vibrant community of artists and performers ready to light up the Artwalk. We’re eager to connect with visual artists, vendors, and collaborators who want to share their work, partner with local spaces, and make Downtown ABQ the place to be this summer! This summer, our series will be hosted across four unique downtown locations, where we’ll be collaborating with local art galleries and creative spaces to highlight even more of Albuquerque’s artistic spirit. As a family-friendly event, everyone is invited to come out, participate, and enjoy the fun while supporting the amazing local talent that ABQ has to offer!
