Art All Day returns for its 13th year, offering thousands of visitors a dynamic window into Trenton’s vibrant artistic community. This year’s event will be held on Saturday, September 21st, 2024 from 12 pm to 6 pm, bringing together art lovers and city explorers alike. Attendees will have the opportunity to visit open art studios, experience live painting demonstrations, enjoy downtown activities, and take a guided art tour around Trenton. Art All Day also coincides with River Days, held in partnership with Mercer County Park Commission, providing a rich mix of creative and outdoor river-related experiences for visitors.

The event kicks off at Artworks Trenton, located at 19 Everett Alley, Trenton, NJ 08611.

Artworks will serve as the hub for all things Art All Day as they begin their journey through the city; welcoming visitors and where they can preview the participating artists in the main gallery show, sign up for guided tours, or pick up a map and explore!

This annual event is made possible by the dedicated collaboration of volunteers, sponsors, staff, and artists who work tirelessly to make each year better than the last. Art All Day is about Artworks authentically connecting to the community,” says Kenya Bullock, Creative Director of this year’s Art All Day. “Trenton is and always will be at the center of the work that we do, and that will be present even more this year and the years to come. We can’t wait to welcome you!”

In addition to exploring the city’s artistic landscape, guests can enjoy new family-friendly activities. This year, Art All Day will feature a special coloring booklet filled with fun activities and word puzzles, as well as a community chalk mural at the River Days event. Live muralists will also be creating art in various locations around the city, including One Up One Down and Artworks itself. The mural initiative is being led by Jonathon Conner (LANK), Artworks’ Public Projects Manager, and promises to bring even more color and creativity to the streets of Trenton.

Throughout the day, attendees can sign up for studio and mural tours that will transport visitors to key artistic destinations around Trenton. Art All Day aims to enrich the community with art, culture, and a sense of connection. Whether you’re a long-time Trenton resident or a first-time visitor, this event offers a unique way to experience the city’s thriving arts scene and get familiarized with the area.
