ABOUT THE EUREKA STREET ART FESTIVAL During the week-long festival, local and international artists will be painting murals and creating street art throughout Downtown Eureka, focusing on the 6th Street corridor between C and H streets.

The festival offers the opportunity to watch the creation of large-scale pieces of world-class art and allows the public to interact with artists through artist talks, daily tours, and special events. The festival culminates in a large Block Party to celebrate the completion of the art.
