Hot Summer Jazz and Art is a FREE jazz concert and art show in historic downtown Santa Paula.

This event is in its 7th year, and we expect 500-600 guests who appreciate fine art and great music.

The Santa Paula Downtown Merchants’ Association invite local artists to submit an entry for possible selection by the Artist Selection Committee. Each selected artist will have a 10’ x 10’ space provided to them on Main St., which will be closed to through traffic. Electricity will also be provided. Booth space is free; however, there is a 20% commission on all sales, which goes directly to the Downtown Merchants Assn. to support this event. All sales and sales tax collection will be handled by the Downtown Merchants’ Assn. Also, please know that:

* Selected artists must attend their exhibits.

* All work must be created by the artist, and must be original.

* All work must be for sale.

* Artist is responsible for entire booth setup, including extension cords and lights. Artists are provided with the space only, and power is at junctions approximately every other booth, requiring extension cords.
