HIGH SPRINGS – Downtown High Springs will once again come alive with color, creativity, and community connection as the seasonal High Springs Art Walk returns to the city’s historic downtown district on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2025, from noon to 5 p.m. The fall event will feature between 15 and 20 local artists and makers, each showcasing their talents along the sidewalks of the walkable downtown area.
The Art Walk series has become one of High Springs’ signature events, celebrating the city’s small-town charm and thriving arts culture. Visitors strolling through downtown will encounter booths filled with original artwork, crafts, and handmade goods, while also enjoying the variety of restaurants, cafés, and locally owned shops that contribute to the town’s welcoming atmosphere.
Event organizers describe the Art Walk as an open-air showcase for artists and artisans to both display and sell their creations. Each participating merchant will also offer special promotions or sales during the afternoon, encouraging attendees to explore the area and support local businesses.
Adding to the weekend’s artistic offerings, Lanza Gallery & Art Supplies will host a special two-week exhibition featuring the work of artist Shawn Dell Joyce. The gallery will present a casual pop-up art reception during the Art Walk, inviting visitors to browse the featured pieces while enjoying light appetizers. The exhibition will remain on display for two weeks following the event, allowing art enthusiasts additional opportunities to view and purchase Joyce’s work.
Meanwhile, the GFWC High Springs New Century Woman’s Club will participate in the festivities with a fundraising booth set up in front of Lanza Gallery & Art Supplies. The club will be selling its new custom cookbook, original watercolor artwork, and a selection of decorative rubber ink stamps to help support its ongoing community projects and programming.
Organizers encourage both residents and visitors to take advantage of the relaxed setting to meet artists, discover unique creations, and enjoy a day celebrating the town’s artistic and entrepreneurial spirit.
Artists or makers interested in participating in future Art Walk events are invited to send a photo of their work to downtownhighsprings@gmail.com for consideration.
For more information, customers or media representatives may contact Unique Notions at 352-318-5719 or Lanza Gallery & Art Supplies at 352-474-1049.
The High Springs Art Walk is a collaboration between local artists, businesses, and community organizations—an event that continues to highlight the city’s enduring reputation as a destination for creativity, craftsmanship, and friendly small-town hospitality.
