Kala turns 50! Celebrate spring and the art of printmaking and more!  Join us for a fun day of art activities! From community art workshops and artist demonstrations to artist vendors and print studio tours, stop by throughout the day and see what’s happening at Kala Art Institute. The festival wraps up with an opening reception for Kala’s 50th-anniversary exhibition Under the Sky. We hope to bring together our local community of artists, youth, and families for a day of sharing and experiencing art in West Berkeley. Free and open to all ages.
