Downtown Santa Ana's First Saturday Artwalk is a great night to show off your work on a project, whether it's completed or needs a live test audience. The Artwalk is coordinated by Downtown Inc., part of the downtown business improvement district. By getting in touch with them, you can start a dialogue on how your project interacts best with an upcoming First Saturday event.
There are a variety of ways to participate including securing a gallery show, setting up a 10x10 on the Artists Village promenade or going rogue and doing your project somewhere within the downtown fabric by busking or popping up somehow.
