Artventure

Artventure is committed to providing a kid centered cultural arts walk. This low-to-no-cost interactive art adventure for the whole family will highlight our cultural arts district and expose local youth to the arts.

WHAT IS ARTVENTURE?

Partnering organizations and businesses will be open with free kids activities, entertainment and freebies. Kids' activites will include origami, face painting, scrap-booking, coloring, water games, contests, gallery exhibits and much more. Entertainment will include performance art, dance, live music, karaoke, puppetry and more. Vendors will be giving away free samples, snacks, balloons, crafts, coupons, and more.

The first 500 families to arrive will be given an Artvoucher treasure map and will visit each of the participating locations for their stamp. Completed Artvouchers are put into a raffle for a Treasure Chest at the end of the day when they are raffled off to a winner. There will be guest appearances, special contests, drawings and entertainment to draw the entire family to the event. Artventure is guaranteed to provide fun family time as well as an opportunity for kids to experience the arts of Klamath Falls.
