Huntington Beach, California, nicknamed Surf City, is known for its gorgeous beach, beautiful weather, excellent surfing and beach culture.  Downtown Huntington Beach embraces the fun spirit of the beach culture with Surf City Nights, Orange County's largest weekly street fair and certified farmers market, and the monthly Art Walk.  From poets to painters, photographers to sculptors, the Art Walk offers participants a fun evening of culture, art, and food. Featuring emerging artists and student artists with unique and unusual presentations, the Art Walk offers artistic displays in restaurants, businesses, and outdoor spaces in downtown Huntington Beach.  Residents and visitors can relax and stroll through the downtown area, enjoy a variety of artwork, and meet the artists.  Many of the works displayed are available for sale, so guests have the opportunity to take a piece of the Art Walk home. For those who get hungry during the Art Walk, there is delicious food at one of the many restaurants in Downtown Huntington Beach. The Huntington Beach Art Walk is held on the third Wednesday of each month from 6pm to 9pm.  Free to the public, the Art Walk starts at the Art Center at the northern end of Main Street and goes down to the beach (map). If you make a purchase at one of the Downtown Huntington Beach Art Walks, there are three AIM Mail Center locations in Huntington Beach, one at 9121 Atlanta Ave, one at 5267 Warner Ave, and one at 19051 Goldenwest St, where friendly professionals can help safely pack and ship your new items.
