What is the Piedmont Park Summer Arts Festival?
The Piedmont Park Summer Arts Festival is a huge annual festival hosted at Atlanta’s iconic Piedmont Park. The festival is organized by the Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces, LLC , who also partner with the fall fine arts Chastain Park Arts Festival and the Buckhead Spring Arts and Crafts Festival–so in other words, they’re the art festival experts.
The festival has four main goals:
- Give back to the community through art
- Bring the tradition of the Piedmont Park Arts Festival to the midtown community
- Create a festival for Artists by Artists, encouraging the artist have a voice in the creation and operations of the festival
- Create a show unlike any other in the City of Atlanta, bringing together outstanding artists from all over the country plus many from right here in Georgia.
It’s a family-friendly, fun event that focuses on visual arts and community!
