Mother’s Day Weekend festivals delight all ages with music, sunshine, art and maybe a beach if you so desire. Among California’s Classic Mother’s Day traditions is the  Sunset Beach Art Festival May 11-12, 2019, just feet from the beach. Now here’s something creative — have your kids pick up seashells and objects at the beach and turn them into memento artwork afterward.
