Digital Graffiti Festival
Details
For three evenings, Alys Beach opens its doors, courtyards, and pedestrian paths to innovative artists who transform the entire resort town into a living work of art during Digital Graffiti,
May 12-14, 2016. The juried festival explores ways in which art, design and technology interact with the distinctive architecture of Alys Beach to create new forms of expression.
In its ninth year, Digital Graffiti transforms Alys Beach’s stark white walls into a canvas of light. The three-day festival includes a Curator’s Tour of select digital art, exhibitions, an awards ceremony and a closing celebration.

Founded in 2004, Alys Beach is an emerging community located in Northwest Florida on Scenic Highway 30A. Designed by Miami-based Duany Plater-Zyberk and Company, Alys Beach provides a variety of experiences, from urban to rural, in a single, 158-acre beachside town.
As the first Fortified for Safer Living community in the world, all homes are built to Florida's Green Home Designation Standard and designed to withstand the elements. When complete, a short
walk through town will take one from the southerly 1,500-foot stretch of white sand and emerald waters, past a private beach club, through a thriving town center filled with a variety of shops and restaurants, along pathways lined with neighborhood parks, pools, and event spaces, and culminate on a 20-acre nature preserve to the north, with trails and boardwalks winding through cypress wetlands. The community is comprised of 600 home sites including free standing villas and attached courtyard residences. For more information, please visit alysbeach.com.
