Experience two events in addition to the Oceanside First Friday Art Walk to be held in downtown Oceanside. “May 5th is a great day to complement our monthly Art Walk event as we will be bringing in several live bands with festive music and dance to celebrate Cinco de Mayo,” said Susan Brown, president of the Oceanside Friends of the Arts.

As a special featured attraction this month in conjunction with Art Walk, the Muramid Mural Museum and Art Center located at 212 F North Coast Highway in Oceanside will host 50 women and men who support women artists during the 2nd Annual Bad As * Women’s Expo. Women artists ranging from painters, musicians, poets, authors, performers, and dancers, are scheduled to share their expressions with the community in Oceanside’s emerging hot spot for cultural activities where the Muramid Mural Museum is located in Artist Alley. Local, national, and international muralists and artists, including one of the world’s best (Mario Torero), have been featured in the Alley. www.oceansideartwalk.org.
