Mark your calendars: The third annual ART 64 returns to The Village of Wauwatosa on Friday, June 7 + Saturday, June 8.

Recognized as the Midwest’s largest bracket-style live painting tournament, this event brings 64 artists together to compete for a $20,000 grand prize.

How does the competition work?

During each round, artists have one hour to create a brush-takingly beautiful creation on canvas with a set theme, including Artist Choice, Nature, and Origin subjects.

Attendees will cast their votes for select participants to advance before one winner is crowned champion.

See a piece of art you can’t live without? Paintings are available to purchase during an online auction at the end of the festivities.

What else can I do in Wauwatosa?

Visitors can explore local businesses in The Village, including:

  • Vendetta Coffee Bar
  • Arté Wine and Paint Shop
  • Wauwatosa Historical Society
  • And more
