"I've experienced the Doylestown Arts Festival from almost every angle: as a shopper supporting local creatives, as an artist sharing my own work, as a brick-and-mortar shop owner in town, and now as a volunteer. The festival is so much more than just an event. It's a celebration of community and creativity, and a reminder of what makes Doylestown so special," said Caitlin Hernandez, Doylestown Borough Director of Parks and Recreation.
New this year, the festival will extend an additional block on E. State Street on Saturday, September 6th, to provide additional opportunities to host talented artists who applied to be involved in this year’s event. This expansion builds on an ongoing initiative to expand the festival due to a steady increase in demand, which began with the Oakland Avenue expansion that has now been in place for three years.
The Doylestown Arts Festival has supported local and regional artists and performers for over 30 years, drawing an audience of buyers and collectors from near and far, while showcasing unique and one-of-a-kind works of art for all to enjoy. Featuring 5 stages of live music with over 40 acts, along with art demonstrations and interactive activities, this event — which is free to the public — is designed for the entire community and visitors to experience.
Home to over 8,000 residents as well as the Michener Art Museum, Mercer Museum & Fonthill Castle, TileWorks, the County Theater, and a robust downtown of galleries, restaurants, and locally-owned shops and boutiques, Doylestown is nationally recognized as a destination town.
