Studio ACE is proud to present the first annual Valley Arts Festival (VAF), supported by a grant from The Conrad Prebys Foundation, with promotional sponsorship by Visit Oceanside. Like so many others, the festival was put on hold in 2020, allowing time for reflection and reinvention. We are pleased to announce the festival is making its official reemergence in 2021 as Valley Arts Festival, which will remain an annual celebration of arts and culture, now featuring different themes each year. To mark its official debut, Valley Arts Festival is pleased to present a celebration of Oceanside and its first peoples: the Payómkawichum (People of the West). The festival aims to help support and celebrate the indigenous population that lived on the land, now known as Oceanside. Valley Arts Festival will help educate the community on the beauty and strength of this amazing culture. A portion of proceeds from the festival will be donated to the San Luis Rey Mission Indian Foundation for enrichment programs. This free family-friendly festival will feature: • Native American flute music with Spiritual Storm • Native American blues music with Tracy Lee Nelson • Indian Fry Bread for purchase • Educational tables filled with historic cultural items and more! Date | Saturday, November 6 from noon to 3 p.m. Location | Heritage Park, Oceanside Free admission. Free parking.
