Group Sales

The La Jolla Festival of the Arts makes for the quintessential San Diego experience. It has been a successful spouse's program, day trip, and custom-shopping journey. The art is all original, the artists are well-accustomed to shipping their wares around the world, and the venue makes a special effort to cater to a wide variety of tastes. Besides art, there will be celebrity cooking demonstrations, author signings, exotic cars, and live entertainment. And did we mention the weather?

If you can arrange to bring a group of 10 or more persons, we can work something out to our mutual benefit. Contact: teri@spearhall.com for further information. Courtesy bus parking with ADVANCED notice, please. The Festival is organized by the Torrey Pines Kiwanis, with proceeds supporting disabled-accessible recreation programs for San Diegans and returning war vets.
