ArtHatch and Distinction Gallery Present the 2nd Annual “Spring in SoCal2”
ArtHatch and Distinction Gallery are thrilled to announce our 2nd Annual "Spring in SoCal2," part of Escondido’s Annual Arts, Culture, and Creativity Month this April. The month-long celebration will feature multiple events, culminating in our April Arts Showcase on April 11, from 6–10 p.m.—our largest and most vibrant gathering of local artists, creativity, and community.
Special Offer: The first 100 guests to RSVP at spring@arthatch.org will receive a free pot and succulent plant. Visitors can visit the front gallery and four additional studios, where local artists will decorate the pots.
For a hands-on experience, head to Teen Studio #12, add your own artistic touches, and watch teens create live as they prepare for their upcoming all-teen art exhibition this July.
Short on time? Don’t worry! A limited number of pre-painted and planted pots will be available for guests who may not have RSVP’d, while supplies last.
Live Music & Entertainment: Groove to live music all evening! C-Barrgs spins from 6–8 p.m., followed by Big Boss Bubble performing from 8–10 p.m.. These fan favorites are guaranteed to get the crowd moving.
Extras: Enjoy open studio tours throughout the evening and drinks available for purchase from Last Spot by Tortari, serving until 11 p.m.
The creativity continues beyond April 11! Join us on April 18 and 25, from 2–5 p.m., to watch local artists paint live in the front gallery.
This event is being funded in part by the City of Escondido Public Art.
