The Festival of Arts of Laguna Beach is an annual event with a history dating back to 1932.

The festival emphasizes original works created by artists in various mediums including painting, sculpture, photography, jewelry, ceramics, glass and digital arts.

Held each summer within a canyon park setting, the festival grounds include artist booths, performance venues, and dining options. It operates as a non-profit organization with proceeds supporting art education programs and providing opportunities for artists within the community. The festival typically runs for several weeks during the summer months and attracts significant numbers of visitors annually.
