I Madonnari 2022 returns to the Old Mission in Santa Barbara this Memorial Day weekend, May 28-30. Festival hours are 10:00 am - 6:00 pm daily. 

I Madonnari was the first of its kind in the western hemisphere, a romantic Italian festival, which spurred from its sister festival in Grazie di Curtatone, Italy.  Produced by the Children's Creative Project, the Festival benefits local arts education programs. The Santa Barbara I Madonnari Italian Street Painting Festival presents the rare opportunity to view artists of all ages create street paintings ranging from classical to original images.  The annual, three-day festival held on the Memorial Day Weekend is returning to the Old Mission Santa Barbara after two years online.
