SUMMARY:Nearby: 46th Annual Woodcarving Show in Cambria
DESCRIPTION:The Estero Bay’s own carving club takes its 46th annual show to Cambria\nIn Cambria\, up Highway 1. The Central Coast Woodcarvers\, the carving club whose membership draws from right here in the Estero Bay area\, hold their 46th Annual Woodcarving Show on Saturday\, September 19 from 10 AM to 5 PM and Sunday\, September 20 from 10 AM to 4 PM at the Cambria Veterans’ Hall\, 1000 Main Street. Admission is a $2 donation with kids 12 and under free\, and for many Morro Bay and Los Osos carvers in the club\, this weekend is the year’s showcase. \nForty-six years of accumulated craft fills the hall: carvings in every style and subject alongside woodburning\, woodturning\, and basketry\, with ongoing demonstrations both days so visitors can watch blades and blanks become finished work in real time. The timed carving contests supply the drama\, Saturday’s open to all levels\, Sunday’s restricted to past blue-ribbon winners\, carving’s version of a masters final. Drawing tickets offer chances at member-donated carvings (pick the piece you want and stack your tickets on it)\, and the People’s Choice display puts prize-awarding power in visitors’ hands. \nThe drive from Morro Bay runs about 25 minutes up Highway 1\, one of the prettiest errands on the coast\, and the show pairs naturally with a Cambria afternoon: the hall sits at the corner of Main and Cambria Drive\, an easy walk from the East Village. Questions go to show chair Melody Mullis at (805) 748-4143 or mamullis@ix.netcom.com. \nFor more craft shows and Nearby Happenings up and down the coast\, see what is coming up on the event calendar.

SUMMARY:Love of Nature Exhibit at Art Center Morro Bay
DESCRIPTION:Love of Nature at Art Center Morro Bay\nArt Center Morro Bay hangs its fall exhibit\, Love of Nature\, from September 17 through November 2 at 835 Main St\, the downtown gallery with the Rock mural on its wall. The subject is the one every local lives inside and every visitor drives Highway 1 to find: the ocean\, the bay\, the marshes\, the mountains\, and the plants and wildlife of the Central Coast\, seen through the individual styles of the region’s artists. \nExpect familiar scenes rendered with personal feeling\, alongside imaginative and abstract takes that treat the coastline as a starting point rather than a postcard. The range is the point. One wall might hold the estuary at low tide in careful detail while the next abstracts the same water into color and motion\, and the show rewards moving slowly enough to notice how differently each artist answers the same landscape. In a fast-moving stretch of the year\, a room full of work about tidelines\, back-bay light\, and coastal wildlife is a standing invitation to slow down. \nAn opening reception runs Sunday\, September 21\, from 2 to 4 PM\, the best chance to meet the artists whose names hang beside the work. The Art Center has anchored this corner of Main Street since the Morro Bay Art Association formed in 1951\, still volunteer-run and still mounting a full slate of exhibits each year\, and a stop here pairs naturally with the galleries and shops within a couple of blocks. \nAutumn fills in fast around town; the rest of the season’s openings\, music\, and outings are gathered on the event calendar. \nImage: Ken Christensen

SUMMARY:Nearby: Cayucos Endless Summer Festival: History Beneath the Waves
DESCRIPTION:The Cayucos Historical Society opens the first Endless Summer Festival with the story of the Montebello sinking.\nStuart McDowell tells the story of the SS Montebello\, the oil tanker torpedoed by a Japanese submarine off this coastline in December 1941\, days after Pearl Harbor\, with the whole crew surviving to reach shore.

SUMMARY:In The Shadow Exhibit at Art Center Morro Bay
DESCRIPTION:In The Shadow opens the late-summer wall at Art Center Morro Bay\nIn downtown Morro Bay. Art Center Morro Bay opens In The Shadow on August 6\, a themed group exhibit running through September 14 at 835 Main Street\, the downtown gallery with the Rock mural on its wall. Admission is free\, with gallery hours from noon to 4 PM\, and the shadow theme gives the member artists a prompt with real range: literal shadow play\, mood and mystery\, the underside of bright coastal light. \nThe Art Center has anchored Morro Bay’s volunteer-run art scene since 1951\, and its themed group shows are where the member roster stretches: painters\, photographers\, ceramicists\, and mixed-media artists all answering the same prompt differently\, which makes even a short visit rewarding. Work in the shows is generally for sale\, supporting both the artists and the center’s programming. \nA reception date had not been posted at press time; the center typically holds one early in each run\, so watch their calendar. The gallery sits an easy walk from the Embarcadero\, making it a natural add to any downtown afternoon\, and the free admission means there is no reason to save it for a special trip. \nFor receptions\, new exhibits\, and more art around the bay\, see what is coming up on the event calendar. \nImage: Emily Smith-Lundy

SUMMARY:🎶 Live Music: Powerhouse Ladies at the Bay Theatre
DESCRIPTION:The Powerhouse Ladies concert puts live music on the Bay Theatre’s single-screen stage for a Sunday afternoon.\nThe downtown movie house turns concert hall for a Sunday matinee\, the reason Practical Magic 2 runs an evening-only show that day. A ticketed live set in a 200-seat room with proper sightlines is a rare configuration in town; when the Bay hosts one\, it’s worth the seat. \nWhere: Bay Theatre\, 464 Morro Bay Blvd\, Morro Bay\nWhen: Sunday\, September 13\, 2026\, 2:00 to 3:30 PM\nCost: $23 \nGet Tickets \nSunday concerts at the movie house are a September bonus; the rest of the month’s stages are on the Morro Bay events calendar.

SUMMARY:🍿 Coyote vs. Acme at the Bay Theatre (evening showing)
DESCRIPTION:Coyote vs. Acme takes over the Bay Theatre screen\nIn downtown Morro Bay. Coyote vs. Acme runs at the Bay Theatre from Friday\, August 28 through Wednesday\, September 9\, the long-awaited live-action and animation hybrid that puts Wile E. Coyote in court against the Acme Corporation over every defective product that ever blew up in his face. Check the show page for confirmed showtimes; the theatre’s standard schedule runs afternoon and evening showings with Sunday matinees\, dark Mondays and Thursdays. \nThe premise is a family comedy with a cult following before it even opened\, and a single-screen hometown run is the right way to see a movie whose whole heart is old-fashioned moviegoing. The Labor Day weekend falls inside the run\, making a matinee an easy holiday-weekend add. \nThe Bay Theatre is Morro Bay’s single-screen downtown movie house at 464 Morro Bay Blvd\, a block off the Embarcadero\, where a night at the movies still comes with a real marquee and walkable dinner options on either side of the show. The theatre is closed Thursdays. The run opens while The Rivals of Amziah King finishes its final week\, so the two films split the screen’s showtimes through September 2; the show pages carry the day-by-day schedule. \nFor the Monday Specials and the rest of the marquee\, see what is coming up on the event calendar.

Art Center Morro Bay opens In The Shadow on August 6\, a themed group exhibit running through September 14 at 835 Main Street\, the downtown gallery with the Rock mural on its wall.

Work in the shows is generally for sale\, supporting both the artists and the center’s programming. \nA reception date had not been posted at press time; the center typically holds one early in each run\, so watch their calendar.

Prices run the full range from small-gift to serious-collector. \nThe park’s downtown location puts the whole weekend within walking distance of everything: coffee before\, lunch on the Embarcadero after\, and easy strolling between. Proceeds support the Morro Bay Art Association’s programs\, which have kept this fair running for decades. Holiday-weekend parking downtown fills by mid-morning\, so early arrival or a few blocks’ walk is the move. \nFor more art events and holiday-weekend happenings around the bay\, see what is coming up on the event calendar.

SUMMARY:🍿 Coyote vs. Acme at the Bay Theatre (evening showing)
DESCRIPTION:Coyote vs. Acme takes over the Bay Theatre screen\nIn downtown Morro Bay. Coyote vs. Acme runs at the Bay Theatre from Friday\, August 28 through Wednesday\, September 9\, the long-awaited live-action and animation hybrid that puts Wile E. Coyote in court against the Acme Corporation over every defective product that ever blew up in his face. Check the show page for confirmed showtimes; the theatre’s standard schedule runs afternoon and evening showings with Sunday matinees\, dark Mondays and Thursdays. \nThe premise is a family comedy with a cult following before it even opened\, and a single-screen hometown run is the right way to see a movie whose whole heart is old-fashioned moviegoing. The Labor Day weekend falls inside the run\, making a matinee an easy holiday-weekend add. \nThe Bay Theatre is Morro Bay’s single-screen downtown movie house at 464 Morro Bay Blvd\, a block off the Embarcadero\, where a night at the movies still comes with a real marquee and walkable dinner options on either side of the show. The theatre is closed Thursdays. The run opens while The Rivals of Amziah King finishes its final week\, so the two films split the screen’s showtimes through September 2; the show pages carry the day-by-day schedule. \nFor the Monday Specials and the rest of the marquee\, see what is coming up on the event calendar.

SUMMARY:In The Shadow Exhibit at Art Center Morro Bay
DESCRIPTION:In The Shadow opens the late-summer wall at Art Center Morro Bay\nIn downtown Morro Bay. Art Center Morro Bay opens In The Shadow on August 6\, a themed group exhibit running through September 14 at 835 Main Street\, the downtown gallery with the Rock mural on its wall. Admission is free\, with gallery hours from noon to 4 PM\, and the shadow theme gives the member artists a prompt with real range: literal shadow play\, mood and mystery\, the underside of bright coastal light. \nThe Art Center has anchored Morro Bay’s volunteer-run art scene since 1951\, and its themed group shows are where the member roster stretches: painters\, photographers\, ceramicists\, and mixed-media artists all answering the same prompt differently\, which makes even a short visit rewarding. Work in the shows is generally for sale\, supporting both the artists and the center’s programming. \nA reception date had not been posted at press time; the center typically holds one early in each run\, so watch their calendar. The gallery sits an easy walk from the Embarcadero\, making it a natural add to any downtown afternoon\, and the free admission means there is no reason to save it for a special trip. \nFor receptions\, new exhibits\, and more art around the bay\, see what is coming up on the event calendar. \nImage: Emily Smith-Lundy

SUMMARY:Art in the Park\, Labor Day Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Art in the Park fills City Park for its Labor Day weekend edition\nIn downtown Morro Bay. Art in the Park returns to Morro Bay City Park for Labor Day weekend\, September 5 through 7\, the final and biggest edition of the fair’s summer season. One of the longest-running outdoor art shows on the Central Coast\, it fills the park at Morro Bay Boulevard and Harbor Street with juried fine artists and craftspeople from across California\, painting\, ceramics\, jewelry\, photography\, glass\, and more\, all free to browse across all three days. \nThe Labor Day edition is the season’s exclamation point\, the holiday weekend bringing the fair’s largest artist turnout and the town’s biggest browsing crowds. The juried format keeps the quality bar high\, and buying here means dealing directly with the person who made the piece\, which is the whole charm of an art fair over a gallery wall. Prices run the full range from small-gift to serious-collector. \nThe park’s downtown location puts the whole weekend within walking distance of everything: coffee before\, lunch on the Embarcadero after\, and easy strolling between. Proceeds support the Morro Bay Art Association’s programs\, which have kept this fair running for decades. Holiday-weekend parking downtown fills by mid-morning\, so early arrival or a few blocks’ walk is the move. \nFor more art events and holiday-weekend happenings around the bay\, see what is coming up on the event calendar.
