Sneak a peek at some of the art and architecture LA has to offer this weekend at the annual Venice Art Walk & Auctions.

Now in its 31^st year, the event will highlight more than 50 artists’ studios and special exhibits, as well as a 400-piece silent art auction. And three separately ticketed Art & Architecture Tours help to complement this. The architecture tours will focus on exploring Rustic Canyon, another centers on architects’ homes in Venice and Santa Monica, and the third promises to weave you through Venice’s famous walk streets and canals.

Once you finish up your tours, there will be live jazz and food vendors on hand to add to the experience, with cuisine from hometown favorites like Chaya Venice. And if all that eye candy puts you in the mood for some libations, there’s a cocktail lounge for that.

If you wind up bidding on a piece at the silent auction, and who could resist with featured artists like Ed Ruscha, know that it all goes to a good cause. Proceeds benefit the Venice Family Clinic, which provides providing free, quality health care to people in need.
