Art & Art History Events

Enjoy a fun-filled day of art exploration for all ages at our second annual Community Art Day! We’ll have art activities, live music performances, food trucks, William & Mary student art vendors, and more at the Williamsburg Community Building.

• Participate in our chalk art competition to flex your art-making skills and win prizes! Selected by our panel of judges, our top prize winner will take home $500. Second place will receive $250 with $150 for third and $75 going to three honorable mentions. Learn more and register here. (Registration also available on-site at the event!)
• Head across the street to get a docent-guided tour of our pop-up exhibition, America in Black & White: Depression-Era Photographs from the Farm Security Administration, at the Stryker Center.
• Watch as we unveil the assembled Communal Quilt — now more than 150 feet long! If you’ve participated in this community-wide project, stop by to try to find your square and view the assembled quilt.
• Take part in fun art activities for all ages.
• Browse art work and other handmade items for sale by W&M student artists.
• Enjoy food trucks including Amma’s Curry in a Hurry, Hungry Hungry Arrow, and Sno-to-Go.
• See live performances by W&M student music and dance groups including the Appalachian Music Ensemble, the Stairwells, Skyler Foley, Pink Lmnade, Syndicate, the Intonations and Wham Bam Big Band!

This event is free and open to all. The Williamsburg Community Building is located at 401 N. Boundary Street, opposite the Williamsburg Regional Library.
