Siesta Fiesta returned to Ocean Boulevard with art pieces and curious customers for a two-day art show on Oct. 24 and 25.

The Siesta Key street was transformed into an art showcase with dozens of vendors showing off their wares. Customers strolled down the street looking at the paintings, sculptures, glass works and other creations.

Safety measures included mask use, one-way traffic lanes, and online reservations for the show.
