Fine Art in the Park Returns to Los Altos
A Beautiful Day of Art, Music, and Community Under the Redwoods
The Rotary Club of Los Altos invites the community to the 51st Annual Fine Art in the Park, returning to Lincoln Park on August 8–9, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
One of Los Altos’ most beloved traditions, Fine Art in the Park brings together more than 150 juried artists, live music, local food and beverages, family activities, and the opportunity to spend a relaxing summer day beneath the majestic redwoods.
Visitors can explore original paintings, sculpture, jewelry, photography, ceramics, glass, textiles, woodwork, and mixed media while meeting the artists behind the work. Whether searching for the perfect piece for a home, garden, or office, attendees will find artwork in a wide range of styles and price points.
Live entertainment will take place throughout the weekend on the Sutter Health Main Stage, while the Buttrick Projects Architecture + Design Community Stage will showcase local performers, demonstrations, and family-friendly activities.
Guests can also enjoy food from local favorites including Chef Chu’s, Mr. Falafel, Tropical Hut, Fire & Slice Pizza, GimBelly, Olde Tyme Kettle Korn, Baskin-Robbins, and more. Wine, craft beer, cocktails, coffee, soft drinks, and water will be available throughout the weekend.
More than an art festival, Fine Art in the Park is the Rotary Club of Los Altos’ largest annual fundraiser. One hundred percent of event proceeds support local and global charitable programs through the Los Altos Rotary Endowment Fund. Each year, the event generates more than $100,000 for scholarships, youth programs, community services, environmental initiatives, and humanitarian projects.
Whether visitors come for the art, the music, the food, or simply a beautiful day in the park, Fine Art in the Park offers an experience that is uniquely Los Altos.
Admission and shuttle parking are free.

The Rotary Club of Los Altos will present its 51st year of the popular Fine Art in the Park Festival. This event will occur Saturday, Aug.8, and Sunday, Aug. 9, from 10 am to 5:30 pm, under the redwoods in Los Altos’ beautiful Lincoln Park.
You are encouraged to attend this year’s show, where you can purchase outstanding artworks by the finest artists---paintings, sculpture, jewelry, clothing, photography, and more--- all while having fun, enjoying great food, music, and community. But most of all, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that many local and international charities will benefit from the proceeds of this year’s event.
For example, last year’s 2025 proceeds resulted in Rotary’s Grants to twenty-four worthy beneficiaries, including the following:
1. Avenidas: to support disadvantaged seniors with rent, medications, and caregiving.
2. Kara: to support Camp Kara for grieving children who experienced the death of a family member
3. Festival of Lights: to support parade floats and costumes
4. The Los Altos Stage Company: to fund youth theatre and musicals.
5. The Community School of Music and Art: to provide a series of free community concerts.
6. The Community Services Agency: To provide medical-alert systems for seniors.
In previous years, the Los Altos Rotary Club also partnered with international Rotary Clubs and Rotary International to make grants to international beneficiaries, such as these:
1. The Karat School: Located in the Ivory Coast, Africa, to concurrently educate girls and their mothers to raise their literacy, employment skills, and status in their society.
2. Save a Girl, a Global Uplift Project: founded by former Los Altos High School teacher, Robert Freeman to keep adolescent girls in school in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
We look forward to seeing you at Lincoln Park in Los Altos.
