More than 250 artists from around the country, representing 19 different disciplines will showcase their art at the Bayou City Art Festival on March 23-24, 2024 in Downtown Houston in Sam Houston Park along Allen Parkway. The Bayou City Art Festival featured artist for the Spring Festival is Karina Llergo, a mixed media artist from Chicago who strives to capture the dynamic energy of the human body and its soulful essence transforming figures into fluid entities, incorporating dance, air, and water to create an otherworldly likeness.
