The 2024 Columbus Arts Festival, produced by the Greater Columbus Arts Council (GCAC) and presented by the American Electric Power Foundation, is set to take place from June 7-9 along Columbus’s downtown riverfront. The event will feature exhibits and sales from more than 250 local and national artists, including all 12 award winners from the previous year. This year’s festival will highlight over 75 Ohio artists and introduce 22 emerging artists from central Ohio through the Emerging Festival Artist program.
Beyond the diverse artist offerings, the festival will provide a full weekend of cultural experiences. Attendees can expect multiple stages with performances by Columbus-based musicians, dancers, theater groups, poets, and storytellers. Notable attractions include the Big Local Arts Village showcasing central Ohio artists and craft demonstrations, a Kids Hands-On Activities Village with interactive art projects, and a Children’s and Teen’s Art Gallery where young art enthusiasts can purchase affordable artwork.
