ArtFest

ArtFest, sponsored by the University of Mount Union and the Alliance Area Chamber of Commerce, annually features original works by area artists showcasing various media including watercolor, oil, ceramics, fine crafts, photography, jewelry, and printmaking, among others. The event features artwork that is both on display and for sale.

The 55th Annual ArtFest will again be held at its historic location around the Campus Lakes of Mount Union. The event will be held on Saturday, September 21 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. in conjunction with the Mount Union vs. Baldwin Wallace football game, Mount Union's Family Day, and Carnation City Food Truck Rally.

In the past, ArtFest has hosted more than 50 vendors and 3,000 visitors.
