Burlingame ArtzFest Temporarily Relocates to Howard Avenue


Thousands of attendees are expected to flock to Burlingame on August  10-11 for the 21st annual Burlingame ArtzFest, one of the Peninsula's most anticipated summer festivals.
The Burlingame ArtzFest features over 150 artisans showcasing original works of art, photography, sculptures, jewelry, clothing, decor and more.
In addition, award-winning musicians will cover an array of musical genres on the main stage, while local performers  will display their talents on the community stage.
There are a wide range of activities for everyone as well as delicious festival foods and beverages. Families with children can also enjoy the special Children's Playland area featuring rides, games, and entertainment for kids.
"Because of the current Burlingame Avenue Streetscape Project, the 2013 Artzfest will temporarily relocate one street south to Howard Avenue,  which encompasses our expanding downtown" said Georgette Naylor, CEO of the Burlingame Chamber of Commerce. "While the venue changes for this year, the elements  of this favorite community event do  not.  We are proud to offer the same high quality artists, exceptional musicians and traditional family fun that the Burlingame ArtzFest is known for. "
The Burlingame ArtzFest is hosted by the Burlingame Chamber of Commerce and is free to the public.
