Having charged an entrance fee for the initial three years, this year\u2019s festival is free and open to the public. A suggested donation of $5 will be accepted at all festival entrances.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in 2009 by Sherry Ahern, the Art &amp; Wine Festival has raised over $120,000 for regional elementary and middle schools, including Bird Rock Elementary, La Jolla Elementary, Torrey Pines Elementary and Muirlands Middle School. All are part of the San Diego Unified School District.<\/p>\n<p>Originally created through the Friends of La Jolla Elementary Inc., the festival donates profits to \u201cunderfunded programs,\u201d organizers said, including art, music, science, physical education, technology and on-site medical care. Over 30,000 people are expected to attend this year\u2019s event.<\/p>\n<p>The juried art show and fundraiser will feature the works of 150 artists from San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange County and Baja, Mexico. Selected by their peers, artists from all mediums will be represented: painting, watercolor, sculpture, photography, drawing, ceramics, printing, glass, jewelry, fiber, wood and mixed media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been an amazing experience working with LJAWF,\u201d Paul Fisher, CEO of Juried Arts Services, said in a press release. Juried Arts Service (JAS) helped organized the attending artists, where were asked to participate after review from Frances Belliveau, Coleen Choisser, Karen Deicas Depodesta, Judy Judy Judy and Joyce Schneider.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJAS works with the top shows in the nation,\u201d Fisher said, \u201cand it\u2019s been a pleasure to see how the drive, determination and professionalism of the La Jolla Art &amp; Wine festival has made this one of the best and fastest growing events in the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the artists\u2019 work and silent auction, there will also be a gourmet marketplace as well as a wine and beer garden, featuring international wine and beer from San Diego\u2019s breweries. Open at noon each day, participating breweries include Ballast Point Brewing and Spirits, Stone Brewing Company, The Lost Abbey, Port Brewing, La Jolla Brewhouse and Lighting Brewery.<\/p>\n<p>There is live music scheduled on two stages throughout the festival weekend, as well as \u201croving entertainment\u201d by the San Diego Circus Center. Performing two to three circus shows each day, the Circus Center teaches children Cirque du Soleil-inspired performances and will stage their shows somewhere on the festival grounds each day, as a surprise to guests.<\/p>\n<p>Due to a partnership with the La Jolla Village Merchants Association, this year\u2019s festival will take place in the heart of La Jolla Village, between Prospect and Kline streets on Girard Avenue, marking another significant change for the growing event.<\/p>\n<p>Entrances for the festival include the main entrances on Kline and Prospect streets, as well as two on Silverado Street and one on Wall Street. Attendees are encouraged to use the valet parking near the Kline Street entrance as well as several public garages and lots.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, there will be free shuttle service sponsored by Donovan\u2019s Steak and Chop House. The service will run from Muirlands Middle School, located at 1056 Nautilus St., and the Holiday Inn Express at 6705 La Jolla Blvd. to the Kline Street entrance.<\/p>\n<p>The 2012 Art &amp; Wine Festival is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on both days.
