Festival organizers announced last week that the Sawdust Festival would be pivoting to a weekend outdoor marketplace as opposed to its typical summer festival as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
The show will go on in Laguna Beach for the Sawdust Art & Craft Festival, though it will take on a different look this summer as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Organizers announced last week that the festival will morph into a weekend outdoor marketplace as opposed to the event’s typical summer festival,between late June to September, due to state and county health regulations. This year’s event will feature more than 100 artists in rotation throughout the summer.
Unlike last year’s almost 200 uniquely designed booths, the outdoor weekend marketplace will have 46 spaces available to artists on rotation. “Our first priority is the health and well-being of our artists, staff and patrons,” Monica Prado, president of the festival’s board of directors, said in a statement.The festival previously had submitted a plan to the city in hopes of operating as usual. Those plans include reductions to crowd capacities, operational hours, concessions, changes to signage and installation of Plexiglass windows between ticket stands, sales and information booths.
