The Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts is one of Pennsylvania’s most anticipated summer traditions. Held each July in Downtown State College and on the Penn State University Park campus, the Arts Festival offers a lively mix of art, music, performances, and creative activities.

Our Arts Festival is among the top-ranked juried art fairs in the country, the highlight of the State College summer, one of the biggest non-football alumni weekends for Penn Staters, the summer’s economic anchor for downtown State College businesses, and the place to be for art lovers near and far the week after Independence Day.

For many of the 125,000+ alumni and visitors each year, the Arts Festival is an enduring tradition, experienced with friends and family, and not to be missed.
