Waldo's Secret Art Walk is Vero Beach's coolest art venue located in Waldo Sexton's unique original homestead. Our first two shows in 2024 and 2025 attracted nearly 3000 patrons each weekend and were featured in Vero Magazine, 32963 and Vero News.

 

Waldo Sexton's 15 acre property is hidden away in the middle of town off 12th Street and was his original homestead. The "Secret Garden" has all the charm and wonder of Waldo's other properties like The Ocean Grill, The Driftwood and McKee's Botanical Gardens. You'll get to visit the "Tree House," a log home built for Waldo's daughter on the property as well as "Waldo's Antique Art Barn" featuring treasures from Waldo's private collections at bargain prices.

 

Artists are tucked away throughout Waldo's Secret Garden and guests can discover everything from paintings and baskets to sculpture and jewelry from the most unique artisans of the area. Great food, drinks and music accompany the event. This year we'll also have free children's face painting and a "Find Waldo" scavenger hunt! Bring the family and well mannered doggies and enjoy the day. Some of our fantastic featured food trucks include "Fruity Sunrise," "Testa Rossa Wood-fired Pizza" "Griddle & Grind" and "Off the Hook" Seafood.

PARKING: You can park in the field at 5000 12th street for $5 per car. Or, find street parking along 12th Street and the surrounding neighborhoods for free. For paid parking, just follow the signs to the venue and someone will guide you to the lot.

If you're looking for something new and fun in Vero's event scene...it's here! We look forward to meeting you the weekend of February 14 and 15, 2026. Hours: Saturday 11-5, Sun 11-5
