A Celebration of the Visual and Performing  Arts

Each November, RiverArtsFest hosts hundreds of nationally renowned artisans and thousands of Mid-Southerners to celebrate the fine arts during a two-day outdoor festival that is free and open to the public.  See, hear, feel and taste art in all its forms, and become part of the moment as it all melds seamlessly with the sights, sounds and historical reverence of the South Main Arts District

The mission of RiverArtsFest is to expand and enhance the reputation of Memphis as an arts-oriented community.  Traditionally, this event has attracted a sophisticated buying public to interact with talented, nationally recognized artists from across the nation.  RiverArtsFest 2007 attracted nearly 40,000 visitors.
