Hungry Artists Founded Fame Festival in 1932 When a group of Laguna Beach artists got together during the depression of 1932 to "keep art alive" and to give themselves a spiritual lift, they did not realize they were creating something destined to become the most dramatic art exposition in America, the annual Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters. Lacking a better place to exhibit their paintings the artists hung them on fences. The next year they did the same thing and in 1933 the idea of living pictures was born... using local residents to portray the characters painted by the old masters. Roy Ropp, Laguna artist, became director, and the Festival of Arts grew from a humble back fence effort to the present spectacular Pageant of the Masters viewed by 50,000 annually. The Festival is held in Irvine Bowl nightly, this season, the 15th, running from July 22 through August 6. The grounds are gay with booths displaying the works of local painters, the handicraft of ceramists and others who work in leather, metal and other crafts. Activity starts on the grounds in the afternoon featuring a free-for-all art class for youngsters, a junior art gallery, puppet show, and artists at their booths, some of them actively engaged in doing a subject in water-color or oil. The Festival grounds and bowl will be open every day and evening during the run of the Festival. NUTS Cashews Fresh Roasted with the purchase of ½ Doz. Donuts at Reg.
