Coconut Grove Arts Festival

I visited on Monday, 23rd (the last day) and the Festival was less crowded. I tried to go on Sunday and only the time that took me to try to drive through the people and traffic was too much time. I saw different varieties of art pieces. They had for all tastes. I particularly liked one artist, that his name is Christopher and he had high resolution pictures in BIG sizes in acrylic. It looks very real and very creative pictures. Also, I personal liked one lady that the husband is from China and he paints in canvas. Beautiful! I didn't like the food. I only tried the giros, not too much meat and not to clean. A lot of fried food. I would like to see next time more healthy options. Ice cream, churros, candies, frosty lemonades. All these sounds good, but also the healthy version like açaí bold could be good. I didn't see homemade and artisanal food and dessert, like: Italian cookies, hummus, herbs (mediterranean options), croissant (French food), wine options. I saw many stands of beer and a few for cocktails. I saw dogs walking inside, I should brought mine. A few tend with clothes and jewelry. Good for families and friends and for small local business. I didn't use the parking, but I saw one in $10. Prices ranges: 25$ (entrance per day- general admission). If you live in the area I think is 20$.

I’ve been to a lot of art festivals, but not any that were as great as this one! Great talent, great variety, great people, great food. Many artists willing to tell you about their passion. Lots of southern artists mixed in as well. Our weather was not great this past weekend, but it was still a great day!

I wish I could have given this event 5 stars. Because, it really host beautiful art with amazing artist! Artists using paper to petals, metal to moments to create. I have enjoyed coming to Coconut Grove Art Festival year after year. My first visit was 1989, about four years after its inception, this was only two weeks after the birth of our baby girl. We needed a break from the routine of new parenthood. Maybe you can identify! It was then I thought my budget could afford some of the beautiful pieces. Fast toward to 2025, although the art is still beautiful as ever, with some fantastic innovations, I bought popcorn! They were so good!!! Innovative, caramely , crunchy, tasty, and very affordable. Oh! I forgot! I purchased lunch and a poster. The event sponsors have posters commemorating each year. But I will continue to support this event. BECAUSE, one day , I WILL buy a piece to hang on my wall. BET!!!

It was huge, hot, and wonderful, amazing artists! $15.00 entrance. No sunblock no problem, you have an emergency Health booth offering to share some with everyone who needs it. Want to Keep cool?. Baptist has a booth ofering chilling experience, with wet ice cold towels for your neck, & a small fan sitting area. Prices are Up there, a mojito could cost you $18-$22 dollars, and not as good as the one I had the other day at Crudo's, beer will cost you $7.00, bottle water $4.00 each. But, I guess that is part of the experience. And the art well.. it's not cheap so bring the cash and cc. Enjoy and invest in great pieces that will for sure accent your home, or your dress code. So much talent and creativity it's crazy! Here is a little tease of What you going to see.

One of the best art festivals we have been to! Really well set up, organized and run with tons of booths, food options, music and other things to do. If you ever in the area I highly recommend this event!

A bit over-priced, a bit underwhelming … lots of art and food venders. VERY CROWDED and VERY HOT !!! 🥵 Yes, even in February. Even in Ohio we have cooling Stations, such as misting fans, at out public events… VERY FEW PLACES TO SIT, and even fewer places to sit in the shade… 😓

This long running art show has been a south Florida staple for decades. Visiting my mother and stepfather's booth of original ceramic pottery and sculpture - Gerhold Studios - during the show was an honor.

After 15 years i comeback this magnificent event! I can’t wait next year for enjoying with the family another sunny day in coconut grove!!
