The program will consist of window murals on vacant storefronts, phantom galleries in open space and operating businesses, and Carlsbad Village's many permanent galleries.

We are currently looking for artists to paint windows and show their artwork in shops throughout the Village.

We are also looking for business owners who would like to participate by creating small galleries in their shops (or windows) to promote local artists, and their own businesses. Participating businesses must agree to be open on the evening of Friday, May 1st from 5 pm - 8 pm.

Be on the lookout Tuesday, March 31st as committee members will hit the streets of the Village to elicit participation.
