Future Generation Invitational Paint Out
Monday, October 5th, 2026 | Heisler Park
Keeping a century-old art legacy alive starts with inspiring our youth. On Monday, October 5th, LPAPA is bringing the Laguna Beach Unified School District out to the bluffs of Heisler Park for our annual Future Generation Paint Out.
The Event Experience
Selected local students from grades 4–12 will be paired side-by-side with LPAPA’s 2026 Invitational Mentor Artists. Students will observe live professional painting demonstrations and receive direct mentoring to create their own coastal masterpieces.
The Gallery Showcase & Fundraiser
-
Where: The LPAPA Gallery | 414 N. Coast Highway, Laguna Beach
-
When: Thursday, October 15 – Monday, November 30, 2026 (Art Walk Reception Thursday November 5th)

The Impact: The public is invited to view the show and acquire a student painting for a suggested donation of $50. Every dollar raised goes directly back to the student’s local school to support youth arts programming.
Keeping it Free for Kids
Because of the incredible support from the Festival of Arts Foundation, the City of Laguna Beach, the Monica Edwards Memorial Fund, our dedicated donors and volunteer mentors, every student receives a high-quality painting kit to take home at zero cost to their families.
