The 2024 Columbus Arts Festival, produced by the Greater Columbus Arts Council, will showcase more than 250 exhibiting artists from 33 states and Ontario, Canada. The festival is scheduled to take place from June 7-9 along the Columbus downtown riverfront.
This year’s event will feature returning award winners from the 2023 festival, a significant number of artists from Ohio, and an expanded Emerging Festival Artist program. The Emerging Festival Artist program, designed for artists with limited national festival experience, will include 22 central Ohio participants, offering them mentorship and reduced booth fees. All artists were selected through a blind jury process from over 855 applicants, with the jury evaluating artwork based on merit, quality, and booth presentation.
