Art Around Adams began with Normal Heights' artists and business owners getting together at a local coffee house to create an event that would focus on the exhibition of local art in business storefronts. They discovered that there were a number of art studios (comprised of very talented and internationally known artists), a framing shop, coffee houses, antique stores, and gift shops within walking distance. With this realization, Art Around Adams was born.
On April 3, 2004, with a limited budget from businesses and artists, Art Around Adams was launched. The first event was considered a major success, with audience estimates at over 300. A trolley was added to provide free transportation along the Avenue, an event staple to this day.
In 2008, Adam Rosen of Walk the Walk and Exodus Studios came on as the event organizer.
Adam Rosen, founder of Walk the Walk Presents... has created Exodus Studios, an event production company deeply rooted in the arts and music scene within San Diego. Exodus Studios foremost goal is to highlight the gems of culture within San Diego through events.
