The family friendly 13th annual Brentwood Art, Wine and Jazz Festival is being held this Saturday and Sunday at the Streets of Brentwood. The event is aimed at bringing together local vintners, local artists from multiple disciplines, and some of the Bay Area’s finest musicians representative of multiple genres of Jazz.
The event is a family affair where children are welcome and even a children’s area is set up to include clay, painting at easels. A wall of art will be displayed to showcase creations from students of the Brentwood Union School District as well as a sand sculpture and chalk art by local high school students.
The event is free of charge and is the largest annual fundraiser of the Brentwood Art Society, which supports and contributes to continuing arts programs and events in the community, including the Art Docent program at all schools of the Brentwood Union School District, scholarships to graduating Seniors, summer Art Walk Events, the Artists Open Studio Tour, Student Art Show, Broadway Under the Stars theater performances, and a monthly Open Mic hosted by the city’s poet laureate, Kati Short.
