More than 200 artists from around the country will be featured at the Beverly Hills art show Affaire in the Gardens this weekend. The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday in Beverly Gardens Park, located on four blocks from Rodeo to Rexford drives along Santa Monica Boulevard. The subject of this year’s show is water, ‘although no rain is planned,’ event spokesman Robert Nieto says.

The show includes an outdoor dining area, a wine garden, live jazz, craft-making for children and demonstrations by artists taking on the subject of water. Some of the proceeds go to the art program at Los Angeles Children’s Hospital.

Could be a fun event for the whole family -- and it’s free.
